The referral 1. Under section 88H(2) of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998, (the Act), an objection has been referred to the adjudicator by a person, (the objector), about the admission arrangements (the arrangements) for Dr Challoner’s Grammar School (the school), a selective academy school for boys aged 11 – 18 for admissions in September 2021. 2. The objection is to the school’s catchment area which is said to be in contravention of the ‘Greenwich judgement’, and therefore unlawful.
