However, you may appeal if you consider that due process was not followed in the conduct of your assessment. You should use this form to submit your appeal and do so within two working weeks of being notified of the outcome of your assessment. Your appeal will be considered by a Best Practice Network Panel, which will comprise the Managing Director or the Quality Assurance Director, one lead or senior EYPS assessor, and one other independent assessor.
A decision on your appeal will be reached and communicated to you within four working weeks of its receipt at the above address. If your appeal is unsuccessful, you have the right of further appeal. We shall also be happy to advise you of the best routes then available to you to secure EYPS status.
