Explanatory note

This Order amends the Education (Areas to which Pupils and Students Belong) Regulations 1989 in consequence of the abolition of the Inner London Education Authority (“ILEA”).

Those Regulations determine the area to which a student belongs both for the purposes of recoupment between local education authorities and for the purposes of mandatory awards under the Education Act 1962 (c. 12). Under regulation 10 in its unamended form certain students were required to be treated as belonging to the area of the ILEA if ordinarily resident there at a particular time. Under the regulation as amended such persons are treated as belonging to the area of the inner London council in which they were ordinarily resident at that time.

A drafting amendment has been made to the Education (Inner London Education Authority) (Transitional and Supplementary Provisions) Order 1990.
