The fair access protocol ensures that - outside of the normal admissions period - those children without a school place, especially the most vulnerable, are found and offered a suitable school place quickly.
Children without a school place who meet one of the categories defined in the protocol, may be referred to and considered under the protocol if a school place cannot be secured through normal in-year transfer procedures.
