If your appeal is rejected, whether you can appeal again depends on the type of appeal you're pursuing. For school transport appeals, there is a two-stage process: if you are not satisfied with the Stage 1 outcome, you can escalate the issue to a Stage 2 appeal. Here's a summary:
| Appeal Process | Next Steps | Timeframe |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 Appeal | Request a review by a Senior Officer | Within 20 working days of Stage 1 decision |
| Stage 2 Appeal | Independent panel hearing | Within 20 working days of Stage 1 outcome |
In the case of planning appeals, if your appeal is rejected, you cannot appeal again, but you may re-engage with the council to submit a new application if you'd like to adjust your approach.
