Section 19 of the Education Act 2002 incorporates governing bodies for all maintained schools, and schedule 1 to that Act sets out various basic parameters of their incorporation (in particular their names).
Grammar schools
Where the Secretary of State is satisfied that a maintained school had selective admission arrangements at the beginning of the 1997-98 school year, he may by order designate the school as a grammar school (section 104, School Standards and Framework Act 1998). This means that Grammar Schools are a special type of maintained school.
