(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend regulation 3 of the Registration of Independent Schools (Prescribed Person) (Scotland) Regulations 2017 to provide that the requirement for a person employed as a teacher by an independent school on or before 1 October 2017 to register with the General Teaching Council for Scotland will take effect from 1 June 2021. The change made by these Regulations is necessary as a result of disruption caused by coronavirus (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-2)).
