Partially-selective schools
10Restriction of right to refuse admission to partially-selective school
In section 411(3) of the [1996 c. 56.] Education Act 1996 (cases where parental preference need not be complied with), for paragraph (c) there shall be substituted—
“(c)if the arrangements for admission to the preferred school—
(i)are wholly based on selection by reference to ability or aptitude, and
(ii)are so based with a view to admitting only pupils with high ability or with aptitude,
and compliance with the preference would be incompatible with selection under those arrangements.”
