Regulation 57 Admissions committeeI1C1
England and Wales
Where the governing body of a school is the admissions authority for that school it must establish a committee, to be known as the admissions committee, to exercise its powers to determine whether any child should be admitted to the school.
A committee established under paragraph (1) must consist of—
the head teacher of the school (who is entitled to vote whether or not he or she is a governor); and
at least two other governors F1(excluding associate pupil governors)
In the case of a school which has more than one head teacher, the reference in paragraph (2)(a) to the head teacher is to be interpreted as a reference to one of the head teachers.
The quorum for the admissions committee and any vote on any matter at the committee is the same as the minimum requirement for the composition of the committee specified in this regulation.
