Employment

Over recent years employment law has become increasingly wide ranging and ever more complex.

Our specialist employment unit has extensive experience in all aspects of employment law and our advice is tailored to the particular needs of schools and colleges.  We know that what is ‘right’ for commercial organisations is not necessarily ‘right’ for education institutions whose culture may be different.


We provide swift access to legal advice when employment issues arise, helping to resolve urgent issues in a sensitive and responsible manner.  We provide the guidance and support that is essential.

Our employment law offer covers:

  • Contracts and terms of employment
  • Capability
  • Disciplinary and Grievance Procedures 
  • Equal Opportunities 
  • Age and disability discrimination
  • Working Time Directives 
  • Human Rights 
  • Racial & Sexual Harassment 
  • Family Friendly Issues 
  • Redundancy / Unfair Dismissal
  • Compromise Agreements

In addition we can provide representation at Employment Tribunals.
