3.—(1) This regulation prescribes for the purposes of section 89(8)(e) the circumstances in which an admission authority, having determined the admission arrangements which are to apply for a particular school year, may (in addition to the circumstances set out in section 89(5)) vary those arrangements.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations prescribe the circumstances in which an admission authority may (in addition to the circumstances set out in section 89(5)) vary the admission arrangements they have determined for a particular school year. References to “section” and “Schedule” throughout are to a section of or Schedule to the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 (c. 31).
Regulation 3(2) provides that an admission authority may vary the admission number they have determined for any relevant age group where necessary to implement approved statutory proposals published under section 28, and a variation of the admission number is necessary to implement those proposals.
Regulation 4 provides that, subject to paragraph (3), the requirements of section 89(5) and (6) shall apply to a variation made pursuant to regulation 3. This means that the admission authority must notify the bodies which they were required by section 89(2) to consult about their proposed admission arrangements of the proposed variation and must refer it to the adjudicator for determination. Paragraph (3) prescribes the circumstances in which these requirements do not apply. These are where the relevant school organisation have approved the statutory proposals under paragraph 3(2)(b) of Schedule 6 without modifying the proposed admission number, or where the statutory proposals have been approved by the adjudicator in accordance with paragraph 3(7) of the Schedule (whether with or without modification of the proposed admission number). However, the exemption from the requirements of section 89(5) and (6) does not apply in either case where the relevant committee subsequently modify an admission number pursuant to a request made under paragraph 5(2)(a) of the Schedule to modify approved proposals.
1998 c. 31; see section 142(1) for the meaning of “regulations” and “prescribed”. By virtue of S.I. 1999/672 the powers conferred by these sections are exercisable by the Secretary of State only in relation to England.
Section 89A was inserted by section 47(2) of the Education Act 2002 (c. 32).
Section 28 was amended by section 73 of the 2002 Act.
