## Scope

England. The regulations say a person may not carry out specified work in a school unless they are a qualified teacher or meet one of the conditions in the schedule (such as working under a teacher's direction); specified work includes planning and preparing lessons, delivering lessons, assessing pupils' progress and reporting on it, and 'delivering' includes delivery via distance learning or computer-aided techniques. Read as made; in force from 1 April 2012. It applies to maintained schools, not academies, and predates AI.

## What this means

In English maintained schools, teaching a class is legally a qualified person's work, even when a computer delivers part of it.

## What it does not show yet

Maintained schools only, read as made, and written before AI.

## How to verify it yourself

Open The Education (Specified Work) (England) Regulations 2012 and find "may not carry out specified work in a school unless".
