Regulation 7G Correction yearF1
Paragraphs (2) and (3) apply where—
the Secretary of State issued a notice of status which states that—
the unregistered franchised provider was a below-threshold franchised provider,
a course which is taught or delivered by that unregistered franchised provider would be designated for student finance during the implementation year, and
that unregistered franchised provider’s student population was 300 or more at any time between the beginning of the calculation reference period and the end of the implementation year.
The Secretary of State may revoke the designation of any course which is taught or delivered by that unregistered franchised provider on behalf of any lead provider.
That revocation will apply to all courses which commence at any time during the academic year immediately following the Secretary of State becoming aware of the provider’s breach of the student population threshold under regulation 7B(11)(b) (the “correction year”).
The Secretary of State may disapply a revocation made under paragraph (2) where, having regard to all the circumstances, the Secretary of State considers it appropriate to do so.
Before revoking the designation of any course under paragraph (2), the Secretary of State must issue a notice to the franchised provider (a “notice of a correction year”), which includes—
confirmation that the Secretary of State intends to revoke the designation of the course, and
the Secretary of State’s determination as to which academic year is to be the correction year.
