EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Education Workforce Council (Main Functions) (Wales) Regulations 2015 (“the principal Regulations”) which specify that a person may not work as a school teacher and carry out specified work unless they are a qualified teacher or satisfy the specified requirements.
Regulation 2 amends regulation 16 of the principal Regulations to include parental bereavement leave and shared parental leave in the list of statutory leave entitlements which the Education Workforce Council will apply to extend the specified period for which a person is able to carry out specified work without qualified teacher status.
The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations has been prepared and a copy can be obtained from the Legislation and Governance Branch, Welsh Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ or SMED2@gov.wales.
