I am assuming this questions relates to oversubscription.
The answer to your question is yes, if the standard admission arrangements apply.
If a child or young person has an EHCp then s43 CFA2014 applies:
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2014/6/section/43/enacted
If the placement named in section I of an EHCp is covered by the statute then:
"The governing body, proprietor or principal of the school or other institution must admit the child or young person for whom the plan is maintained"
