(This note is not part of the Order)

These Regulations amend the Education (School Curriculum and Related Information) (Wales) Regulations 1991 (S.I.1991/1658). The amendment Regulations correct an error in the main Regulations (regulation 2(1) of the amendment Regulations). They also require parents to be informed of the arrangements for appealing against a decision refusing a child admission to a school other than an aided or special agreement school (regulation 2(2)) and for similar information in similar circumstances to be given in the case of an aided or special agreement school (regulation 2(3)).
