Appeals

This guidance is intended to provide information about the national (UK-wide) appeal process in relation to the national application process for the two-year Foundation Programme. Appeals against national elements of the application process will be managed by the UK Foundation Programme Office (UKFPO). 

Appeals will only be considered where an application for the Foundation Programme has been received.  There is a separate national complaints procedure for F2 Stand-alone recruitment.

Non-urgent advice: Important

Allocations to foundation schools are final and applicants are not able to appeal their allocation results.

National swaps between foundation schools and programmes are not permitted.
