Are there any exceptions to the further and higher education institution provisions?

There are exceptions to enable single-sex institutions to admit only students of one sex and for a small number of designated institutions with a religious ethos to enable them to have admissions criteria which give preference to members of their own religion for courses which are not vocational. There are also exceptions in relation to courses with a genuine occupational requirement.

These exceptions are explained in more detail in Admissions.
