(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations are made under section 90(9)(a) of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 (SSFA) and come into force on 28th May 2008.
They make one amendment to the School Admissions (Alteration and Variation of, and Objections to, Arrangements) (England) Regulations 2007 by substituting a new time limit for objections to schools´ admission arrangements to be referred to the adjudicator under section 90(1) or (2) of the SSFA.
New regulation 7 requires that any objection must be referred by 31st July in the calendar year in which the relevant admission arrangements have been determined. A later objection will be considered properly referred if it was not reasonably practicable for the objection to have been received earlier than the time it was received.
