Draft Admission Policy for September 2026
Introduction
All governing bodies are required by Section 37 of the Children and Families Act 2014 to admit to the school a child with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan that names the school. This is not an oversubscription criterion. This relates only to children who have undergone statutory assessment and for whom a final Education, Health and Care Plan has been issued.
Where there are more applications for a school than there are places available, places will be allocated in order using the oversubscription criteria in this policy.
