Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

These Regulations revoke and replace the Education (Particulars of Independent Schools) Regulations 1997. They relate to applications for registration of independent schools under section 160(1) of the Education Act 2002 and information to be provided periodically by the proprietors of independent schools under section 168 of that Act. Sections 160(2) and 162 of the Education Act 2002 combine to provide that a school may be removed from the register if there is a change in “the maximum number of pupils”, which new schools are required to state in their applications. Regulation 11 provides for a baseline figure in relation to existing schools. A full regulatory impact assessment of the effect that this instrument will have on the costs of business is available from the Independent Schools Registration Team, Department for Education and Skills, Ground Floor, Mowden Hall, Staindrop Road, Darlington DL3 9BG and accessible on the Department’s internet website at www.dfes.gov.uk/ria/ . Copies have also been placed in the Library of each House of Parliament.

Offences created by this instrument

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
