(This note is not part of the Order)
The Education (National Curriculum) (Foundation Subjects at Key Stage 4) Order 1994 (S.I. 1994/1814) amends the Education Reform Act 1988 so that in relation to the fourth key stage a modern foreign language specified in an Order of the Secretary of State ceases to be a foundation subject in England until 1st August 1996 and ceases to be a foundation subject completely in Wales.
The modern foreign languages which are foundation subjects comprised in the National Curriculum at the third and fourth key stages are specified by the Education (National Curriculum) (Modern Foreign Languages) Order 1991. That Order applies to pupils in both England and Wales. The present Order makes consequential amendments to the 1991 Order.
