EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Education (Student Loans) (Scotland) Regulations 2000 ("the principal Regulations"). Regulation 5(2) of the principal Regulations is amended so that a sandwich course is a designated course for the purposes of regulation 4(2) of those Regulations if a student undertaking that course is required to attend periods of full-time study for an average of at least 18 (instead of 19) weeks in each year (regulation 3(a)). Only students undertaking designated courses are eligible for student loans.
A new paragraph is inserted in regulation 5 of the principal Regulations to provide that where periods of full-time study and work experience occur within any week of a sandwich course, the days of full-time study shall be aggregated with any weeks of full-time study in determining the number of weeks of full-time study in each year (regulation 3(b)).
