Despite this, Part 10 of the 2002 Act remains in force for the purpose of enabling section 162 of that Act to have effect in England, see article 4 of S.I. 2014/3364. By virtue of article 4(b) of that S.I., references to the “independent school standards” are to be construed for the purposes of section 162 as references to the standards prescribed by the Secretary of State under section 94(1) of the 2008 Act."
