(a) whether or not an applicant is entitled to any remission of fees in respect of the child; and

(b) the extent of that remission.

(2) Remission questions must be determined by the school for the school year in which a child holds an aided place and for each subsequent school year by reference to—

(a) the relevant income as respects the child; and

(b) whether or not the applicant has been entitled to remission of fees in a previous school year.

(3) Remission questions must be determined by the school separately for each part of the school year if—

(b) the number of aided pupils who are children of the applicant changes throughout the school year.

(4) Fees remitted in relation to those parts of the school year mentioned in sub-paragraph (3) are to be calculated on a pro rata basis according to the total number of school days in that school year and part of that school year.
