EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order lists the name of every body which is not a recognised body within section 216(4) of the Education Reform Act 1988 (the "1988" Act) but which appears to the Secretary of State either–

(a)to provide a course which is in preparation for a degree to be granted by such a recognised body and is approved by or on behalf of that body; or

(b)to be a constituent college, school, hall or other institution of a university which is such a recognised body.

‘Recognised bodies' are universities, colleges or other bodies which are authorised by Royal Charter or by or under Act of Parliament to grant degrees and other bodies for the time being permitted by those bodies to act on their behalf in the granting of degrees. This includes bodies that are only authorised to grant foundation degrees.

Recognised bodies may provide courses leading to the award of a degree by another recognised body but they will not appear on this Order.

This Order updates and replaces the list of bodies contained in the Education (Listed Bodies) (England) Order 2010 (S.I. 2010/2614), which is revoked.

Part I of the Schedule to this Order lists all of those bodies that appear to the Secretary of State to provide courses in preparation for a degree, whether generally, as listed in section 1, or in respect of a foundation degree only, as listed in section 2. Part 2 of the Schedule lists all of those bodies that appear to the Secretary of State to be constituent colleges, schools, halls or other institutions of a university.

There are omitted from the Schedule to this Order a number of bodies that were listed in the previous Order but which no longer provide courses that are approved by or on behalf of a recognised body. The Schedule includes bodies that were not listed in the previous Order but which now provide courses that are approved by or on behalf of a recognised body. It incorporates other minor amendments and name changes.

An impact assessment has not been produced for the Order because it has no impact on businesses, civil society organisations or the public sector.

(2)

By virtue of the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/672) and the Scotland Act 1998 (Consequential Modifications) (No 2) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/1820) the powers conferred by sections 216(2) and 232(5) of the Education Reform Act 1988 are exercisable by the Secretary of State only in relation to England.
