Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Education (Listed Bodies) (England) Order 2007 (the “2007 Order”) lists the name of every body which is not a recognised body within section 216(4) of the Education Reform Act 1988 (the “1988 Act”) but which appears to the Secretary of State either:

(a)

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

(b)

to be a constituent college, school, hall or other institution of a university which is such a recognised body.

This Order amends the 2007 Order and updates the list of bodies contained in the Schedule to that Order. A number of bodies are omitted from the Schedule as they no longer provide courses which are approved by or on behalf of a recognised body. The Schedule includes bodies that were not listed in previous Orders, but which now provide courses that are approved by or on behalf of the recognised body. A number of minor amendments have also been made to the Schedule to take account of the name changes since the 2007 Order was made.

A regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
