These Regulations replace the Education (Approval of Special Schools) Regulations 1983, as amended, which are revoked by regulation 3. They make new provision for the approval by the Secretary of State as special schools of schools which are not maintained by a local education authority and which are not grant-maintained schools (“non-maintained special schools”). They prescribe the requirements which must be observed by such schools in order to be approved and while such approval is in force.
Provision is made for the withdrawal of such approval (regulation 7) and for special schools in hospitals (regulation 8).
The Regulations prescribe the information to be included in the notices which have to be served when a local education authority proposes to establish a new maintained special school, when specified alterations (regulation 9) in maintained special schools are proposed and when it is proposed to discontinue such a school (regulation 11). They also prescribe on whom such notices are to be served (regulation 10).
