Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend regulation 4(a) of the Scholarships and Other Benefits Regulations 1977 (which permits local education authorities to defray the expenses of pupils taking part in school activities) by inserting a reference to grant-maintained schools. They also update the definition of “school” in those Regulations to refer to the Education Acts 1944 to 1988.
