38.(1) The proprietor of every school shall cause to be kept, in accordance
with regulations made by the Ministry, a register containing the prescribed
particulars with respect to all persons of compulsory school age who are
pupils at the school and such regulations may

(a)make provision for enabling the registers so kept to be inspected and
extracts taken therefrom for the purposes of this Order by persons duly
authorised in that behalf under the regulations; and

(b)require persons by whom registers are so kept to make to the Ministry and
to boards such periodical or other returns as to the contents thereof as may
be prescribed.

(2) A person who contravenes the provisions of paragraph (1) or of regulations
made thereunder shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction
to a fine not exceeding #25.

(3) Regulations made by the Ministry may prescribe the procedure by which a
child may become a registered pupil at a school and the procedure by which a
child may be withdrawn from a school at which he is a registered pupil but a
child registered at a special school under arrangements made by a board or by
a former local education authority and who has not attained the upper limit of
compulsory school age shall not be withdrawn from the school without the
consent of the board by whom the arrangements were made or, if made by a
former local education authority, of the board for the area in which the child
ordinarily resides.

(4) Where a board, on an application by the parent of a child registered at a
special school, refuses to give its consent to the withdrawal of the child
from the school, the parent may refer the matter to the Ministry and the
Ministry may give such direction thereon as it thinks fit.
