Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order)
The Education (Listed Bodies) (England) Order 2004 lists the name of every body which is not a “recognised body” within section 216(4) of the Education Reform Act 1988 but which appears to the Secretary of State either:
to provide a course which is in preparation for a degree to be granted by such a recognised body and is approved by or on behalf of that body; or
to be a constituent college, school, hall or other institution of a university which is such a recognised body.
“Recognised bodies” are universities, colleges or other bodies which are authorised by Royal Charter or by or under Act of Parliament to grant degrees and other bodies for the time being permitted by those bodies to act on their behalf in the granting of degrees.
This Order amends the Education (Listed Bodies) (England) Order 2004 to add Kensington College of Business, London City College and the School of Technology and Management to the list of bodies appearing to the Secretary of State to fall within (a) above.
A Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business or charities.
