Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

(iiia) an institution solely or principally concerned with the provision of higher education, or (iv) an institution in receipt of funding from the Secretary of State ..., and (c) which is outside the further education sector.

(4) This subsection applies to a person— (a) for whom an EHC plan is maintained, or (b) for whom an EHC plan was maintained immediately before— (i) the person ceased to be a pupil at his or her last school or (if later) the person ceased to be a student at his or her last post-16 institution, or (ii) the institution in England mentioned in subsection (2) started providing relevant education or training for the person. (5) Regulations may— (a) provide that a specified institution or an institution of a specified description is not an independent post-16 college; (b) provide that time spent on a specified activity or on an activity of a specified description is or is not to be treated as time during which education or training is provided for the purposes of this section; (c) amend subsection (3)(a) so as to substitute a different number of hours or weeks for the number of hours or weeks for the time being mentioned there.

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.
