PDF 176 KB
Each local authority must have a Fair Access Protocol in place and all schools in a local authority area must participate in it.A Fair Access Protocol ensures that unplaced children, especially the most vulnerable, are offered a place at a suitable school in their home local authority as quickly as possible. This includes admitting children above the published admission number to schools that are already full.
The proposed Protocols set out the criteria that the local authority will use to determine which children will be placed under Surrey’s Fair Access Protocol in 2017/18 and how cases will be considered.The changes proposed to the Protocols for 2017/18 take into account comments received from schools and Surrey County Council (SCC) officers.
