Curriculum and Assessment (Wales) Act 2021

82 General interpretation

(1) In this Act—

• “class” (“dosbarth”), in relation to a pupil, means—

  (a)

  the teaching group in which the pupil is regularly taught, or

  (b)

  where there are two or more such groups, the group designated by the head teacher of the school;

• “modify” (“addasu”), in relation to an enactment, includes amend, repeal or revoke;

• “regulations” (“rheoliadau”) means regulations made by the Welsh Ministers.

(2) Other expressions in this Act that are defined in, or given a meaning by, the Education Act 1996 (c. 56) have the same meaning as in that Act.

(3) But where for the purposes of this Act an expression is given (either by this Act or by the Legislation (Wales) Act 2019 (anaw 4)) a meaning different from that given to it for the purposes of the Education Act 1996, that meaning applies for the purposes of that provision instead of the one given for the purposes of the 1996 Act.
