Regulation 6 Report when pupil changes schools
Subject to paragraph (4) where a pupil ceases to be a registered pupil at a maintained school (his “old” school) and becomes a registered pupil at another school (his “new” school), the head teacher of the pupil’s old school shall at the time referred to in paragraph (3) send to the head teacher of his new school a report about the pupil containing the information referred to in paragraph (2).
The information is—
the levels achieved by the pupil at or near the end of each key stage in each attainment target and subject;
in the case of a pupil of compulsory school age, his teachers' most recent assessments, since he was last assessed in accordance with the statutory arrangements, of his achievements in relation to all attainment targets in the foundation subjects which apply to him; and
the results of any public examination taken by him (including results of such examinations taken when the pupil was a registered pupil at another maintained school).
The head teacher of the pupil’s old school shall send the report within 15 school days of the pupil’s ceasing to be registered at the school.
This regulation does not apply where it is not reasonably practicable for the head teacher of the old school to ascertain the pupil’s new school, nor where the pupil was registered at his old school for less than four weeks.
Notwithstanding paragraph (4) if the head teacher of the pupil’s old school receives at any time a request from the head teacher of the pupil’s new school for a report about the pupil he shall send one containing the information referred to in paragraph (2) within 15 school days of receiving the request.
