Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which come into force on 1st October 1997, amend the Education (Further Education Institutions Information) (England) Regulations 1995. The 1995 Regulations concern the publication of information by institutions within the further education sector in England only.
The 1995 Regulations require institutions to publish information about the occupation of students who have obtained qualifications in the academic year preceding the academic year in respect of which other information is published in the same document. The amendments allow institutions to choose whether to publish this information in relation to the preceding academic year as at present, or to publish the information in relation to the same academic year in respect of which the other information is published.
