How to request
To request a review, email a detailed explanation for seeking the review to registrarngs.doe@education.nt.gov.au.
An assessor who was not involved in the original decision will carry out the review.
They will assess the merits of the original decision and provide a report to the registrar within a month after conducting the review.
This report will include a recommendation to either:
- confirm, vary or set aside the original decision
- substitute a different decision.
The registrar will then make the final decision and provide it to you in a written notice.
If you're still unhappy with the outcome, you can request a review by the NT Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NTCAT).
To find out more, go to the NTCAT website.
