Fair access protocol

We are required to have a fair access protocol to ensure that any unplaced children, especially the most vulnerable, are offered a place at a suitable school as quickly as possible, outside the normal admissions round.

We have to ensure that all schools, whether they have vacancies or not, are asked to take a proportionate number of children who have either been excluded from other schools or who have challenging behaviour.
