(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Education (Head Teachers’ Qualifications) (England) Regulations 2003. Those Regulations provide that a person may only serve as a head teacher of a school maintained by a local authority or a non-maintained special school if they hold certain qualifications, unless they were appointed on or after 1st April 2004 and before 1st April 2009, had successfully applied by the date of their appointment to train for the National Professional Qualification for Headship, and have been in post for less than four years. That four year period is extended where the head teacher is absent from work in exercise of certain listed rights. Regulation 2 of these Regulations adds additional paternity leave to that list of rights.
2002 c. 32. Section 210(7) has been amended by section 21 of the Learner Travel (Wales) Measure 2008 (2008 nawm 2).
