EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


These Regulations amend the Education (Pupil Referral Units) (Application of Enactments) (England) Regulations 2005 by inserting a new paragraph 14A into Schedule 1 to those Regulations.

The new paragraph applies to pupil referral units part of regulation 11, and regulation 11A, of the School Staffing (England) Regulations 2003, which require teachers and support staff in maintained schools, including supply teachers employed by local education authorities, to be subject to an enhanced Criminal Records Bureau check prior to or as soon as practicable after their appointment. Accordingly, teachers and support staff appointed by a local education authority to work in a pupil referral unit, including supply teachers appointed for that purpose, must be subject to such a check.
