Fair Access Protocol

What is the Fair Access Protocol and how it affects admissions in Westminster.

Schools in Westminster are committed to an agreed Fair Access Protocol.

This ensures that, outside the annual admissions round, unplaced children, especially the most vulnerable, are offered a place at a suitable school as quickly as possible.

Under this protocol, school governing bodies may prioritise admitting vulnerable children or admit a child even if this would cause the school to exceed its normal admission number.
