Those functions are the Authority's functions currently exercisable in relation to both England and Wales with the exception of its functions relating to the examination and assessment of pupils in the Fourth Key Stage or above in subjects other than Welsh.
The authority now known as Awdurdod Cwricwlwm ac Asesu Cymru or the Curriculum and Assessment Authority for Wales was established by section 14(1)(b) of the Education Reform Act 1988 (c. 40) under the name of the Curriculum Council for Wales. Its present name was substituted by Section 253(1) of the 1993 Act.
The School Curriculum and Assessment Authority was established by Section 244 of the 1993 Act.
