EDUCATION, ENGLAND AND WALES
These Regulations apply (except where the context otherwise requires) in relation to all county, voluntary and maintained special schools. They revoke the Education (School Governing Bodies) Regulations 1981 (S.I. 1981/809) and the Education (School Governing Bodies) (Amendment) Regulations 1981 (S.I. 1981/1180) (regulation 2), and make fresh provision as to the meetings and proceedings of the governing bodies of such schools. Provision is also made as to the meetings and proceedings of selection panels (constituted in relation to the appointment of head teachers and deputy head teachers at county, controlled, maintained special and special agreement schools) (Part III); and as to the circumstances in which a local education authority, where they would otherwise have been required to consult the governing body of a school before taking a particular step, may proceed without such consultation (Part IV). Except where the context otherwise requires, any reference to a “governing body” is a reference to the governing body of a county, voluntary or maintained special school (whether constituted under the Education (No. 2) Act 1986 or under an earlier enactment); “governing body” includes a temporary governing body; and “school” includes a new school as defined in paragraph 1 of Schedule 2 to the said Act of 1986 (regulation 3).
