Explanatory note

This Order enables Haringey London Borough Council (“the authority”) to constitute the temporary governing body of the Haringey Sixth Form Centre otherwise than as provided by education legislation. The New Schools (General) (England) Regulations 2003, as amended (“the Regulations”), provide for the temporary governing body of a proposed community school to consist of certain numbers of temporary governors falling within specified categories. The Regulations also specify that no person shall be qualified to be a temporary governor unless he is aged 18 or over at the date of his election or appointment.

The Order is made under section 2 of the Education Act 2002. Article 2 exempts the authority from the duty to constitute the temporary governing body for the Haringey Sixth Form Centre in accordance with the Regulations and exempts the authority from the requirement that all temporary governors must be aged 18 or over. Article 3 provides that the Order has effect until 8th December 2008.
