Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(1)

A local authority must publish the information specified in Part 1 of the Schedule to these Regulations.

(2)

The information must be published before 1 October of the year preceding the academic year to which the information relates but in the case of information relating to the academic year 2009-2010 the local authority is required to publish the information only in so far as it has not already done so (under the Education (School Information) (Wales) Regulations 1999) and is required to do so as soon as is reasonably practicable.

(3)

The information must be published —

(a)

on the local authority’s website;

(b)

by copies being distributed without charge to parents on request, and made available for reference by parents and other persons —

(i)

at the offices of the local authority; and

(ii)

at every school maintained by the local authority;

(c)

by copies being made available for reference by parents and other persons at the public libraries in the authority’s area;

(d)

by copies being distributed without charge to parents of pupils who are in their final year at schools maintained by the local authority, other than special schools or pupil referral units.

(4)

Pupils are in their final year for the purpose of paragraph (3)(d) if, in the year preceding the academic year to which the information relates, they are in the final year at a school and they might transfer to other schools maintained by the local authority.

(5)

It is sufficient compliance with paragraph (3)(d) if there is published so much of the information as is relevant having regard to the schools to which pupils in the final year at a particular school might transfer.

(6)

The information must also be published by copies being distributed without charge to any other relevant places which the local authority consider learners ordinarily resident within its area may wish to attend.
