(4)An order may make different provision for different cases, including different provision for different areas.
(5)An order may, in particular, as regards remuneration—
(a)confer discretion on the local education authority [F1or, in the case of a grant-maintained school, on the governing body of the school] with respect to any matter [F2and provide for any discretion so conferred on a local education authority to be exercisable instead by the governing body of any school to which section 44 or 45 of the Education Reform Act 1988 for the time being applies];

(b)so far as it relates to conditions of employment other than remuneration, that the provisions set out or referred to in the order shall have effect as terms of the contracts of employment of teachers to whom the order applies;
and the provisions of a teacher’s contract of employment shall have, or continue to have, effect only so far as consistent with those provisions.
(7)The Secretary of State may by order made by statutory instrument coming into force on or before 1st October 1987, without any report of the Advisory Committee but after consulting—
