EDUCATION, ENGLAND

These Regulations made under section 46 of the Education Act 1997 and which apply only to England extend the relevant phase of a pupil’s education during which he must be provided with a programme of careers education under section 43 of the Act. The Regulations extend the requirements of section 43 which previously applied only to pupils in school years 9-11 (14 to 16 year olds) to pupils in school years 7 and 8 (12 and 13 year olds).
