EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Education (Listed Bodies) (Scotland) Order 2018 (“the 2018 Order”) lists the name of every body which is not a recognised body within section 216(4)(a) or (b) of the Education Reform Act 1988 but which appears to the Scottish Ministers either-

  1. a

    to provide a course which is in preparation for a degree to be granted by such a recognised body and is approved by or on behalf of the recognised body, or

  2. b

    to be a constituent college, school, hall or other institution of a university which is such a recognised body.

This Order amends the 2018 Order to correct minor drafting errors in the list of bodies contained in section 1 of Part 1 of the schedule of that Order, which sets out the list of bodies that appear to the Scottish Ministers to provide courses in preparation for a degree generally.
