História biográfica

The External Council was established as The Council for External Students under the 1900 statutes made for the University of London by the Commissioners appointed under the University of London Act 1898.

The Council consisted of the Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor, the Chairman of Convocation, members of the Senate appointed by Convocation, and members of the Senate elected by the Senate.

Despite the University of London Acts 1926 and 1978 the functions of the External Council remained the same. Statute 77, passed under the University of London Act 1978, defined the Councils duties as to 'advise the Senate and to exercise such executive powers as the Senate may delegate to it in respect of:

the establishment of degrees, diplomas and certificates of proficiency for External Students;
the preparation of syllabuses of study for External Students and the giving of advice and guidance to such students preparing for a degree, diploma or certificate of proficiency;
the regulation, conduct and superintendence of examinations for External Students and the appointment of Examiners for such examinations;
the admission of External Students under suitable conditions to University courses of instruction and to University libraries etc;
the conditions under which the Higher School Examination or examinations for the General Certificate of Education may be accepted in whole or in part as the equivalent of Intermediate or Preliminary examinations for External Students;
such other matters as the Senate may prescribe'.

In the academic session 1984-1985 the External Council became a committee of the Academic Council, the 'Committee for External Students'.
