This Statistical First Release gives information about appeals lodged by parents against non-admission of their children to their preferred school in 2005/06. It details the number of appeals lodged, heard and the outcome. These figures are provided by Local Authorities as part of the Department's Survey of Admission Appeals for all their Community and Voluntary Controlled schools. The data for Voluntary Aided, Special Agreement and Foundation Schools are derived from School Census returns made by schools to the Department each year. Figures for Academies are not included in this publication as their admissions are not handled by the Local Authorities
