Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order lists the name of every body which is not a recognised body within section 216(4) of the Education Reform Act 1988 but which either—

(a)

provides any 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)

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

Every university, college or other body that is authorised by Royal Charter or by or under Act of Parliament to grant degrees and every other body for the time being permitted by these bodies to act on their behalf in the granting of degrees, is a recognised body.

The Order updates and replaces the list of bodies contained in the Education (Listed Bodies) (Wales) Order 2002, which is revoked.

There are omitted from the Schedule to this Order a number of bodies previously within the list but which no longer provide courses that are approved by or on behalf of a recognised body. The Schedule includes a number of bodies that were not previously within the list but which now provide courses that are approved by or on behalf of a recognised body and incorporates other minor amendments and name changes.
