Ensuring that vulnerable children are allocated a school place (Fair Access Protocol)

19. Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools

19.1.

Buckinghamshire Council is the admission authority for community and voluntary controlled schools in Buckinghamshire. Therefore, there is no direction process and if Buckinghamshire Council, the admission authority of a community or voluntary controlled school, decides to admit a child to one of these schools, that school has no lawful basis for refusing to place that child on roll.
