  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations place a duty on the governing body of a maintained school with a delegated budget, and on the local education authority in respect of a school without a delegated budget or a pupil referral unit, to review the staffing arrangements at the school or the pupil referral unit. The purpose of the review is to ensure that the management and deployment of, and allocation of responsibilities to, all staff at the school (or pupil referral unit) make effective use of resources. In conducting the review the governing body or LEA must take into account the pay arrangements and the conditions of employment of school teachers set out in the Pay and Conditions Document, and also the implications for the grading and remuneration of support staff. The review must be determined and an implementation plan prepared on or before 31 March 2006.\nThe duty upon governing bodies to conduct the review of the staffing structure does not affect the general principles and the respective roles and responsibilities of governing bodies and head teachers set out in the School Government (Terms of Reference) (Wales) Regulations 2000.\nThese Regulations also impose a duty on the same bodies to have regard to the need for the head teacher, or the teacher in charge in the case of a pupil referral unit, to enjoy a reasonable work/life balance.",
