Children’s Wellbeing and Schools BillContribution
In addition, we must not forget Clause 47(5) of this Bill, which enables any such Henry VIII orders made under the Education Act to amend new Schedule 1A to the Academies Act, which sets out which provisions of the national curriculum are to apply to academies. This is yet another Henry VIII power. Clause 47 is riddled with Henry VIII powers that are totally concealed.
