School admissions are administered by Lincolnshire County Council. You can find out more about the appeals process on their website.
Admissions Appeals
Appealing a school place decision should only be done if you have already applied:
- for a school place for the September intake and have been refused a place at a school.
- to move schools for an in-year place and have been refused a place at a school.
To appeal Walton Academy’s decision to refuse a place, please complete the appeal form and return it to us together with any supporting evidence you wish the panel to consider.
Paper copies of the form are available on request. Please contact enquiries@walton.ac.org.uk for further assistance.
We will acknowledge receipt of the form within five school days.
Admissions appeals for year 7 entry 2026
National offer day will take place on 2 March 2026.
If you do not receive an offer of a place for your child at Walton Academy and wish to appeal, we must receive your completed appeal form by 31 March 2026.
Walton Academy uses the Lincolnshire County Council independent appeals panel to hear all appeals. For more information about the appeal process, please click here.
