Year 7 Appeals
If you were not allocated a place at Childwall Sports & Science Academy, you have the right to appeal. Your appeal will be determined by an Independent Appeal Panel.
We hold our appeals process in June each year. If you wish to submit an admissions appeal, please ensure that your appeal is completed by the specified deadline and is directed to our Headteacher Ms J Vincent and clearly mark the envelope with ‘Admissions Appeal’.
All appeals for Year 7 September 2025 intake must be submitted by April 2025.

In-Year Transfers
All requests for admissions between September and July in any year are dealt with in one of the following ways:
1) If your child currently attends a school in Liverpool then an In Year Transfer should be initiated by your child’s current school. The application will then be sent to Childwall Sports and Science Academy for consideration.
2) If your child currently attends a school outside of the Liverpool authority then all In Year Transfer requests should be logged with Liverpool City Council Admission Department using their online form.
In-Year Transfers – How long will it take?
Before applicants can be considered for an ‘In-Year Transfer’ we are required by the School Admissions Policy to request background reports on a students’ attendance, attainment and behaviour from their current or previous school.
This means that the minimum processing time for an application is 20 school days.
