Regulation 7 Report when pupil changes school
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 this new school a report about the pupil containing the information referred to in paragraph (2).
The information is—
the subject and attainment target levels achieved by the pupil in each of the core subjects shown by his most recent and all previous assessments (where available) in accordance with the statutory arrangements specifying both teacher and NC test assessed levels;
in the case of a pupil of compulsory school age, his teacher’s most recent assessments of his achievements in relation to all attainment targets in the core subjects, since the later of his last assessment in accordance with the statutory arrangements and his admission to the old school; and
the results of any public examination taken and details of vocational qualifications achieved by him (including results of such examinations taken and details of such qualifications achieved, 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.
