Section 46 enables the Secretary of State to confer exemptions from the learning and development requirements in certain prescribed circumstances. Regulations may provide that the learning and development requirements should not apply, or should apply with specified modifications, to a particular early years provider or to a group of early years providers. Regulations may also enable an early years provider to determine that the learning and development requirements do not apply, or apply with modifications, in respect of a particular child.
