EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Education (Assisted Places) Regulations 1997 ("the 1997 Regulations") in respect of the school year beginning on or after 1st September 2007. The 1997 Regulations provide for the continued operation of the assisted places scheme in respect of pupils eligible to continue to hold assisted places by virtue of section 2 of the Education (Schools) Act 1997, notwithstanding the abolition of the assisted places scheme by section 1 of that Act.
The reductions to be made in relevant income in respect of dependent relatives pursuant to regulation 10(4) and (6) of the 1997 Regulations are increased from £1,625 to £1,675.
These Regulations amend the means test for the remission of fees: the level of income at or below which fees are to be wholly remitted is set at £12,864 instead of £12,470, with corresponding increases in the extent of remission where relevant income exceeds that sum.
