Very likely England (and probably in parts Wales) Scotland has their own Education Acts. AFAIK there has never been such a thing as a single UK education entity to rule over.

Yeah, I looked it up and it says it applied to England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Although Scotland does have a completely different education system from the rest of the UK, the Scottish parliament wasn't built yet, it means this would've been a UK Parliament matter then. By the looks of it, it probably affected private and church(?) schools as well. http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1996/56/contents Hope this helps.
