sec.36 Deciding application
The board must consider the application and decide— to change the relevant student-intake day to the day sought in the application; or not to change the relevant student-intake day. The board may only decide to change the relevant student-intake day if the board is satisfied that, because of unforeseen circumstances, the school will not comply with the accreditation criteria by the relevant student-intake day. If the board decides to change the relevant student-intake day, the board must as soon as practicable give the school’s governing body notice of the decision. If the board decides not to change the relevant student-intake day, the board must as soon as practicable give the school’s governing body an information notice about the decision. A decision not to change the relevant student-intake day does not take effect until— the last day to apply for a review of the decision; or if an application is made for a review of the decision—the day the application is decided or otherwise disposed of.
