EDUCATION, ENGLAND AND WALES

This Order brings into force on 6th January 1999 section 89 of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998, which requires admission authorities for maintained schools to determine the admission arrangements for their schools for each school year, and to consult other admission authorities before doing so. The Order contains a transitional provision to ensure that section 89 does not apply in relation to arrangements under which pupils will be admitted to schools before the school year beginning in 2000. There is also provision to ensure that account will be taken of any consultation which has taken place before section 89 comes into force.
