These Regulations revoke the Education (Assisted Places) (Scotland) Regulations 2001 (“the principal Regulations”) and amending instruments.

Section 5(1) of the Education (Schools) Act 1997 amended section 75A of the 1980 Act with the effect that the assisted places scheme could only be operated in relation to pupils admitted to a place before the 1997-1998 school term until those pupils completed their primary education or, at the Secretary of State’s discretion, until the completion of their secondary education.
