Education (Scotland) Act 2025

Schools (Consultation) (Scotland) Act 2010

262.Paragraph 24 of schedule 4 modifies the Schools (Consultation) (Scotland) Act 2010 to replace references to Her Majesty’s Inspectors of Education (HMIE) with references to the Chief Inspector of Education in Scotland. This ensures that references to things that were previously done by or in relation to HMIE will now apply to things that are done by or in relation to the Chief Inspector. Specifically, this means that the Chief Inspector will require to be involved in any relevant proposals made by an education authority. A relevant proposal is defined in schedule 1 of that Act but includes, for example, a proposal to permanently discontinue a school.
