In this Order— “the 1986 Order” means the Education and Libraries (Northern Ireland) Order 1986 (NI 3); “the 1989 Order” means the Education Reform (Northern Ireland) Order 1989 (NI 20); “the 1997 Order” means the Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1997 (NI 5); “the 1998 Order” means the Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1998 (NI 13). This Order shall be construed as one with the 1986 Order; and accordingly Article 2 of the 1986 Order, in so far as it relates to the interpretation of words or expressions used in that Order and in this Order, applies for the purposes of this Order as it applies for the purposes of that Order. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . There shall be a scheme ( “the common funding scheme”) for the funding of relevant schools. In this Part “relevant school” means a grant-aided school, other than a special school or a school established in a hospital. The common funding scheme— shall be prepared and adopted, and may be varied or replaced, by the Department in accordance with the following provisions of this Article. The Department shall prepare a draft scheme after consultation with— the Authority ; the Council for Catholic Maintained Schools; and such other bodies and persons as it thinks fit. The Department shall send a copy of the draft scheme to— each body or person consulted by it under paragraph (4)(c). The Authority shall, in such manner as the Department may direct— consult the Board of Governors of every relevant. . . school ... about the draft scheme; and inform the Department of the outcome of those consultations. Para. (7) rep. by 2003 NI 12 The Department shall consider — any views submitted to it by a body or person mentioned in paragraph (5); and the outcome of the consultations mentioned in paragraph (6) and (7), and shall then— adopt the scheme (either in the form of the draft or with such modifications as the Department thinks appropriate); and publish the scheme. Subject to the paragraph (10), the scheme may be varied or replaced by a subsequent scheme made under this Article. If in the opinion of the Department a subsequent scheme prepared by it does not make any significant change to the previous scheme, paragraphs (5) to (8) do not apply in relation to that scheme and the Department may adopt and publish the scheme. It shall be the duty of the Authority to give effect to the common funding scheme for the time being adopted under this Article. On such day as the Department may by order appoint the following provisions of this Article shall cease to have effect— in paragraph (6), the words “controlled and maintained”; and paragraph (7). The common funding scheme shall include— provision requiring the budget share of each relevant school for a financial year to be determined by the application of a formula ( “the common funding formula”) set out in the scheme; provision requiring the delegation by the Authority to the Board of Governors of each relevant controlled or maintained school of the management of the school's budget share for each financial year; and such other provisions as are required by this Part or Part VII of the 1998 Order to be included in the scheme. The common funding scheme may include such other provisions— as are authorised by this Part or Part VII of the 1998 Order to be included in the scheme; or as appear to the Department to be necessary or expedient in connection with the funding of relevant schools. For the purposes of this Part and Part VII of the 1998 Order a school's budget share in respect of a financial year is— in relation to a controlled or maintained school, the amount management of which falls to be delegated to the Board of Governors of the school under the common funding scheme in respect of that year; in relation to a voluntary grammar school, the amount of the grant to be made to that school under Article 60(3)(a) of the 1989 Order or Article 61(2)(a) of the 1998 Order in respect of that year; and in relation to a grant-maintained integrated school, the amount of the grant to be made to that school under Article 77(2)(a) of the 1989 Order or Article 63(2)(a) of the 1998 Order in respect of that year. In this Article “formula” includes methods, principles and rules of any description, however expressed. The common funding formula— shall include provision for taking into account, in the case of each relevant school, the number and ages of pupils who— are, or are expected to be, registered at the school on such date or dates (whether before or during that year) as may be determined by or under the scheme; and are not of a class or description excluded by the scheme from being taken into account for the purposes of any such provision; may include provision for taking into account factors affecting the particular needs of any class or description of school; may include provision for taking into account factors affecting the needs of individual schools which are subject to variation from school to school. The common funding formula may, in relation to a grammar school having a preparatory department, make special provision for the determination of the budget share of that school in so far as it relates to the preparatory department. The special provision made by virtue of paragraph (6) may include provision the effect of which is that the budget share of the school, in so far as it relates to the preparatory department— is substantially less than it would have been but for that provision; or is nil. In paragraphs (6) and (7) “preparatory department”, in relation to a grammar school, means that part of the school in which primary education is provided. shall provide for a school's budget share for a financial year to be determined initially before the beginning of that year; but may provide for that budget share to be revised from time to time. The common funding scheme may provide for amounts determined by or in accordance with the common funding scheme to be allocated to relevant schools (in addition to their budget share). The common funding scheme may provide for it to apply with such modifications as may be specified therein in relation to a school which becomes a relevant school at any time during the course of a financial year (whether by virtue of being newly established as such a school or by virtue of becoming such a school where it was previously an independent school). The delegation under the common funding scheme of the management of a school's budget share shall be subject to such conditions— as may be imposed by the scheme; or as may be imposed in accordance with the scheme by the Authority . The common funding scheme shall require the Authority in imposing any conditions by virtue of paragraph (1)(b) to have regard to any guidance issued by the Department as to the conditions it regards as appropriate for imposition by the Authority . In the case of each controlled and maintained school with a delegated budget, the Authority shall put at the disposal of the Board of Governors in respect of each financial year a sum equal to the school's budget share for that year, to be spent for the purposes of the school. The times at which, and the manner in which, any such sum is put at the disposal of the Board of Governors shall be such as may be provided by or under the scheme. The Authority may not delegate to the Board of Governors of a relevant controlled or maintained school the power to spend any amount appropriated by the Authority for the purposes of the school otherwise than as required or authorised by or under the scheme. The Board of Governors of a school which has a delegated budget— shall be entitled, subject to any provision made by or under the scheme, to spend any sum made available to it in respect of the school's budget share for a financial year as it thinks fit for the purposes of the school; and may delegate to the principal, to such extent as may be permitted by or under the scheme, its power under sub-paragraph (a) in relation to any part of that sum. The members of the Board of Governors of a school shall not incur any personal liability in respect of anything done in good faith in the exercise or purported exercise of their powers under paragraph (4). The common funding scheme shall require the Authority — before the beginning of each financial year to prepare and publish a statement of the financial provision it plans to make in that year for relevant. . . schools ...; after the end of each financial year to prepare and publish a statement of— resources actually used in that year for the purposes of all relevant. . . schools; and resources so used which were used, or are treated by the Authority as having been used, for the purposes of each such school. A statement prepared under this Article shall— be prepared in such form and at such times, and contain such particulars, as may be required by or under the scheme. The Authority shall furnish— the Board of Governors of each relevant school, and the Council for Catholic Maintained Schools, with a copy of each statement prepared by the Authority under this Article. A Board of Governors shall secure that a copy of any statement furnished to it under this Article is available for inspection (at all reasonable times and free of charge) at the school. In this Article a reference to the use of resources is a reference to their expenditure, consumption or reduction in value. On such day as the Department may by order appoint the words “controlled and maintained” in paragraph (1)(a) and (b) shall cease to have effect. In this Part— references to a school which has a delegated budget are references to a school managed by a Board of Governors to which the Authority has for the time being delegated the management of the school's budget share in pursuance of the scheme; the Board of Governors of a school to which the Authority is required by the scheme to delegate the management of the school's budget share is said to have a right to a delegated budget. “the scheme” means the common funding scheme under Article 3; ... References in this Part— to a school's budget share are to be construed in accordance with Article 4(3); to a relevant school are to be construed in accordance with Article 3(2). The Department may by order subject to affirmative resolution substitute for references in this Part to a financial year references to such other period as the Department may determine. Directions and guidance given by the Department under this Part shall— be in writing; and be published in such manner as the Department thinks fit. Article 9—Amendments It shall be the duty of the Board of Governors of a grant-aided school to safeguard and promote the welfare of pupils attending the school at all times when such pupils are— on the premises of the school; or in the lawful control or charge of a member of the staff of the school. Paragraph (1) does not apply in relation to pupils for whom accommodation is provided by the Board of Governors of a voluntary school (as to whom broadly corresponding provision is made by Article 176(1) of the Children (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 (NI 2)). Article 101 of the 1986 Order (directions by Department as to performance of duties imposed by or under the Education Orders) shall apply in relation to the duty imposed on the Board of Governors of a voluntary school by Article 176(1) of the Children (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 as it applies in relation to duties imposed on such a Board of Governors by or under any provision of the Education Orders. It shall be the duty of the Board of Governors of a grant-aided school— to determine the measures to be taken at the school (whether by the Board of Governors, the staff of the school or other persons) with a view to protecting pupils from abuse (whether at school or elsewhere); to review those measures— from time to time; and (without prejudice to head (i)) at such times as the Department may direct; in determining or reviewing those measures to have regard to any guidance given by the Department, the Authority ... and (in the case of a Catholic maintained school) the Council for Catholic Maintained Schools; to prepare a written statement of such measures and to secure that— a copy of that statement is given (free of charge) to the parents of all registered pupils at the school and to the staff of the school; and copies of the statement are available for inspection (at all reasonable times and free of charge) at the school; and to secure that such measures are taken. Directions under paragraph (1)(b)(ii) may be given— in relation to grant-aided schools generally; in relation to a class or description of grant-aided school; or in relation to any particular grant-aided school or schools. In this Article “abuse” includes sexual abuse and abuse causing physical or mental harm to a child. Article 3 of the 1998 Order (responsibility of Board of Governors and principal for discipline) shall be amended as follows. In paragraph (2)(b) (consultation by Board of Governors before making or revising statement of general principles concerning discipline) for the words “the parents of registered pupils at the school” there shall be substituted “ the registered pupils at the school and the parents of those pupils ”. In paragraph (3)(a)(ii) (principal to determine measures to be taken to encourage good behaviour and respect for others on the part of pupils) at the end there shall be added “ and, in particular, preventing all forms of bullying among pupils ”. In paragraph (3) after sub-paragraph (a) there shall be inserted— before determining such measures, to consult the registered pupils at the school and the parents of those pupils; In Article 15(8) of the 1997 Order (regulations as to constitution and procedure of admission appeal tribunals) after sub-paragraph (d) there shall be inserted— may provide for tribunals to sit in private, except in such circumstances as may be specified in, or determined in accordance with, the regulations; In Article 15(10) of the 1997 Order (travelling and subsistence allowances to members of admission appeal tribunals to be on such conditions and at such rates as the Department may determine) the words “ , on such conditions and at such rates as the Department may determine, ” shall be omitted. After that paragraph there shall be inserted— Payments under paragraph (10) shall be made at such rates and on such conditions as may be— determined by the board; and approved by the Department. In Article 23 of 1998 Order (arrangements for applications for admission to pre-school education to be made directly to the Board of Governors of the school concerned) for paragraphs (1) and (2) there shall be substituted— Every board shall make arrangements for the parent of a child resident in the area of the board— to express (in order of preference) his preferences as to the school at which he wishes pre-school education to be provided for his child; where any of those schools provides both full time and part-time pre-school education, to express his preference as to which kind of pre-school education he wishes to be provided for his child; and to give reasons for his preferences. Where the parent of a child has expressed his preferences under arrangements under paragraph (1)— the parent shall be taken as making an application for admission of the child to the school which is the first preference of the parent; and if that application is refused, the parent shall then be taken as making an application for admission of the child to the school which is the second preference of the parent, and so on, taking each preference of the parent in order. Where— a school provides both full-time and part time education; and a parent's expressed preferences include both, paragraph (2) shall be read as if references to admission to a school were references to admission to a school for the particular kind of pre-school education (that is to say part-time or full-time) which is specified in the preference in question. This Article does not apply in relation to any admission to a school taking effect, or proposed admission which would take effect, in a school year ending on or before 31st July 2004. The Authority may make arrangements for the admission to a special school ... of a child who is resident outside Northern Ireland and has special educational needs. Arrangements made in respect of a child under this Article shall not be for a period of more than one school year at a time; but further arrangements may be made under this Article for a subsequent school year in respect of the same child and the same special school. The Authority may only enter into arrangements under this Article in respect of a special school and a school year (or a part thereof) if the Authority is of the opinion that doing so will not, in the school year in question, prevent the admission to the school of a child resident in Northern Ireland. Articles 128 to 131 of the 1989 Order (which restrict the charges which can be made in respect of pupils at a grant-aided school) shall not apply to a special school in relation to a pupil admitted to the school in accordance with arrangements under this Article; and accordingly in Article 127 of the 1989 Order after paragraph (4) there shall be inserted— Those Articles do not apply to a special school in relation to a pupil admitted to the school in accordance with arrangements under Article 22 of the Education and Libraries (Northern Ireland) Order 2003.
