AN ACT relating to education.

This bill makes two main changes: it limits the Education Professional Standards Board's authority to educators hired by public schools specifically, and it creates a legal definition for "learning pods" while exempting them from the rules that apply to licensed child-care centers, family child-care homes, and youth camps. This matters to Kentuckians because it clarifies which educators face state licensing oversight and removes certain state oversight requirements from small, informal learning groups. Who it may affect: parents who use or operate learning pods, educators working outside traditional public schools, and child-care providers.
