EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations prescribe the day the planning period begins for the purposes of section 3E(1) of the Standards in Scotland’s Schools etc. Act 2000 (“the 2000 Act”). Section 3E(1) requires the Scottish Ministers each year to prepare and publish a plan, setting out the steps that they propose to take during the planning period with a view to reducing inequalities of outcome for pupils of a type mentioned in section 3A(2) of the 2000 Act (pupils who experience those inequalities as a result of socio-economic disadvantage), and the educational benefits for those pupils that they consider will result from taking those steps.
The day prescribed as the day on which the planning period begins for the purposes of section 3E(1) is 1st January. The first planning period will run from 1st January to 31st December 2017.
