As published

109 Proposals by governing body of grammar school to end selective admission arrangements.

(1) This section has effect for enabling the admission arrangements of a grammar school to be revised (otherwise than in circumstances where section 108(2) applies) so that the school no longer has selective admission arrangements and its admission arrangements instead either— (a) make no provision for selection by ability, or (b) make provision for one or more of the following, namely— (i) any selection by ability authorised by section 101, (ii) any selection by aptitude authorised by section 102, and (iii) any selection by ability such as is mentioned in section 99(2)(c). (2) Any such revision of the admission arrangements of a grammar school shall be one of the alterations to a maintained school which are prescribed under section 18 of the 2006 Act; but any proposals for any such revision of the admission arrangements of a grammar school which is a community school shall be published under section 19 of the 2006 Act by the governing body and not by the local authority. (3) Regulations may provide— (a) that, in their application to any proposals for any such revision of the admission arrangements of a grammar school, any provision of sections 19 to 24 of the 2006 Act or regulations under those sections shall have effect with such modifications as may be prescribed; (b) that, in any prescribed circumstances following the making of a request for a ballot to be held under section 105, any such proposals under section 19 of the 2006 Act shall be of no effect. (4) Regulations made under section 105 may make provision, in relation to cases where any such proposals under section 19 of the 2006 Act have fallen to be implemented under regulations under section 24 of that Act, for requiring the school to which the proposals relate to be disregarded for the purposes of any regulations made under section 105(2). (5) Where the Secretary of State is satisfied that, by reason of the implementation of any such proposals, a grammar school no longer has selective admission arrangements, he shall revoke the order made by him with respect to the school under section 104. (6) In this section “the 2006 Act” means the Education and Inspections Act 2006.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
