Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order both modifies the effect of and amends the Education (London Residuary Body) (Property Transfer) Order 1992 (“the 1992 Order”). The 1992 Order transferred the former Wandsworth Boys' Secondary School, Sutherland Grove, SW18 to the Council of the London Borough of Wandsworth subject to a condition that it be brought into use by 1st April 1995 (which date was later changed by order to 1st September 1999) as the site for a new school or as the site for a school transferring to that site. This Order provides that that condition now only applies to part of the site of the former Wandsworth Boys' Secondary School (article 2). The part in question can be identified from plan number SG/001 described as “Plan referred to in article 2 of the Education (London Residuary Body) (Property Transfer) (Modification and Amendment) Order 1998” which is deposited at the Town Hall, Wandsworth High Street, London SW18 2PU. In addition, 1st September 2000 is substituted for 1st September 1999 as the date by which the part of the site subject to the condition must be brought into use as the site for a new school or as the site for a school transferring to that site.
