The Education (Review of Staffing Structure) (England) Regulations 2005
These Regulations place a duty on the governing body of a maintained school with a delegated budget, and on the local education authority in respect of a school without a delegated budget or a pupil referral unit (the “relevant body”), to review the staffing arrangements at the school, or the pupil referral unit, as the case may be. The review must be conducted with a view to ensuring that the management and deployment of, and allocation of duties and responsibilities to, all staff make effective use of its resources. In conducting the review, the relevant body must take into account the pay arrangements and the conditions of employment of school teachers set out in the Document and the implications for the grading and remuneration of support staff. On or before 31st December 2005, all relevant bodies must determine their review of the staffing structure and prepare a plan for the implementation of any changes to the staffing structure.
