Important! Send the Appeal Registration Form with a stamped self addressed postcard or envelope - this will be used to acknowledge your appeal. 

Address the envelope to:

The Clerk to the Governors, Heckmondwike Grammar School, High Street, Heckmondwike, WF16 0AH

and mark it clearly 'APPEAL'. 

The stamped addressed postcard/envelope will be returned to you to ensure that you know that your appeal is being processed.  

In the case of entry into Year 7, appeals should normally be registered as soon as possible after the local authority letter allocating places at secondary schools.

All other appeals should be made within 3 (three) weeks of the letter in which a place has not been offered.
