answer text <p>The School Admissions Code does not prevent a school from becoming an all-through primary school for children aged 2 or 3 to age 11. It does, however, prevent schools from giving priority for reception places to children who have been admitted to the nursery class unless they can do so fairly and without disadvantaging children whose parents choose other forms of early education.</p><p> </p><p>Ministers are considering the Chief Schools Adjudicator's recommendation that they issue further guidance for admission authorities so that there is fair access to schools for all children.</p><p> </p><p>We take fair access very seriously but also want to explore the incentives for schools to use their expertise to enhance early years education.</p><p> </p> more like this
