# The Education (Parenting Orders) (Wales) Regulations 2006, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations prescribe the conditions to be met before a local education authority may apply to a magistrates' court for a parenting order under section 20(1)(b) of the Anti-social Behaviour Act 2003. The Regulations apply in relation to pupils excluded from schools in Wales.
The conditions are set out in regulation 3. In the case of a pupil excluded for a fixed term, he or she must have been excluded at least twice in a twelve month period. In all cases, an application must not be made more than six months after the last occasion on which a pupil was excluded and must be made within the “relevant period”, which is defined in regulation 4.
Regulation 5 provides that the costs associated with the requirements of a parenting order shall be borne by the local education authority.
