Regulation 8 Grammar schoolsI1

This regulation applies to an admission authority for a grammar school as defined by section 104(7).

No priority need be given to a relevant looked after child where the arrangements for the admission of pupils are wholly based on selection by reference to ability and provide for only those pupils who achieve the highest ranked results in any selection test to be admitted.

Where paragraph (2) does not apply, the admission authority must give first priority in its oversubscription criteria to all relevant looked after children who meet the pre-set standards of the school.
