(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make amendments to the School Information (England) Regulations 2008 (“the 2008 Regulations”) and come into force on 1st September 2012. The amendments apply to maintained schools.
Regulation 10 of the 2008 Regulations is substituted by regulation 2(3). The effect of this is to remove the requirement upon governing bodies of maintained schools to publish a school prospectus annually. The additional requirement for special schools to make copies of their prospectus available at the offices of the relevant local authority for distribution to parents and other persons is also removed.
Instead a new requirement is introduced to publish the information specified in the new Schedule 4 on a website.
The requirements to publish information about a school’s determined admission arrangements on a website, and to update this information annually at least six weeks before the date upon which parents may express a preference for the school, do not apply to the governing bodies of voluntary aided and foundation schools because there is already a requirement for them to publish their admissions arrangements online under the School Admissions Code.
The requirements upon governing bodies to publish specified information on a website will not preclude them from publishing other information which they consider appropriate.
No impact assessment has been produced for this instrument because no significant impact on business, civil society organisations or the public sector is foreseen.
