Article 6 Pupils not subject to provisions of the National Curriculum

Article 5(3) is to have effect in relation to pupils as respects whom provisions of the National Curriculum do not apply (including pupils with statements of special educational needs) with the modifications specified in this article.

Where one AT in a subject does not apply to such a pupil, article 5(3) is to have effect as if the number of ATs applying to the pupil were the total number of ATs in the subject and as if the AT which does not apply, and any weighting in respect thereof, were ignored.

Where more than one AT in a subject does not apply to such a pupil, article 5(3) is not to apply to that pupil in relation to that subject.

In the case of Welsh where the pupil is following the programme of study known as “Welsh Second Language”, article 5(3) is not to apply to that pupil if AT1 (oral) does not apply to him or her.
