Objecting to admission arrangements
Any person or body who considers that any maintained school or academy's arrangements are unlawful, or not in compliance with the School Admissions Code or relevant law relating to admissions, can make an objection to the Office of the Schools Adjudicator.

Full details of the outcome of each objection or referral are published here, on the School Adjudicator's website and on the website of the school concerned.
