The Education (Local Curriculum for Pupils in Key Stage 4) (Wales) Regulations 2009
The Learning and Skills (Wales) Measure 2009 (nawm 1) (“the Measure”) inserted new provisions into Part 7 of the Education Act 2002 (“the 2002 Act”). Part 7 concerns the curriculum in maintained schools in Wales. As a result of Part 1 of the Measure the curriculum in maintained secondary schools in Wales is expanded to include the local curriculum entitlements of pupils in key stage 4. These Regulations make provision as to the formation of the local curriculum, the elections a pupil may make, the head teacher’s decision as to entitlement, and the head teacher’s decision to remove an entitlement.
