EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Education (Co-ordination of Admission Arrangements) (Secondary Schools) (England) Regulations 2002, which make provision for co-ordinating the arrangements for the admission of pupils to secondary schools, and come into force on [ … ] 2004.
The Regulations release local education authorities from the duty to formulate a qualifying scheme where they adopt a previously imposed scheme [regulation 3], enable local education authorities to co-ordinate their admission arrangements in circumstances where a parent applies for places at secondary schools in more than one area with a view to only one offer of a place being made [regulations 6 and 7], and make other consequential and minor amendments.
The Department considers that these Regulations will have no effect on the costs of businesses and accordingly a Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been prepared.
