Section 58: Power of LEAs to arrange provision of education at non-maintained schools

169.This section repeals section 128 of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998. Section 128 amended section 16 of the Education Act 1996 and substituted a new section 18 in that Act. The new section 18 gave the Secretary of State the power to make regulations, under which a LEA could assist primary and secondary schools outside the maintained sector, or make arrangements for pupils to be educated at such schools: an assisted places scheme. The section has never been commenced, and the Government therefore now considers that it should be repealed. The effect of the repeal is that the original section 18 remains in force. LEAs will continue to retain powers under sections 16 and 18 of the Education Act 1996 to assist, and arrange provision of education at, non-maintained schools.
