This will allow the governing body to make alterations to when the school sessions start and end including when the school day starts and ends from 1 June 2015, rather than at the beginning of a school term or school year. Article 3 specifies that the Order has effect until 31 August 2015.

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to this Order. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with this Order.
