(This note does not form part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make provision with regard to services provided by those whose employment as a teacher or worker with children or young persons is prohibited or restricted under Regulations made under section 218(6) of the Education Reform Act 1988. They also make provision requiring the employers of teachers to report misconduct to the National Assembly for Wales.
Regulation 1 revokes regulation 10A of the Education (Teachers) Regulations 1993 and regulation 3(4) of the Education (Teachers) (Amendment) Regulations 1998.
Regulation 3 requires the governing body of a school or further education institution, the local education authority for that school or institution and the proprietor of an independent school to take reasonably practicable steps to prevent a person whose employment is prohibited or restricted under Regulations made under section 218(6) of the Education Reform Act 1988, but who is not in relevant employment, from providing services in relation to that school or institution or to those attending it which would involve regular contact with children or young persons.
Regulation 4 requires the employer of a person who is dismissed from relevant employment on grounds of misconduct, or who resigns in circumstances in which that person would have been so dismissed, to report the facts of the case and provide such further information as relates to the circumstances of the dismissal or resignation to the National Assembly for Wales.
