Cases considering section 579 10

Essex County Council v Williams

[2011] EWCA Civ 1315 · 15 November 2011Defines

The judgment uses section 579’s general definition of “child” as part of the statutory context, while treating section 312(5) as the controlling extension for Part IV (see paras [18]; [36]; [43]).

AOJ, R (on the application of) v London Borough of Islington

[2024] EWHC 427 (Admin) · 28 February 2024Defines

Defines “child” for the purposes of Part 3 through the statutory reading mechanism in section 83(7) of the Children and Families Act 2014. The Court did not decide the claimant’s status. (see para [12])

BC, R (on the application of) v North Yorkshire County Council & Anor

The court applies the statutory definition of “school year” as the period beginning with the first school term after July and ending with the beginning of the corresponding term after the following July.
