Advising educational establishments on their rights and responsibilities as an Employer is an increasingly complex and specialist area; particularly with the drive towards academisation, multi-academy trusts and the ever-increasing legislative burden of safeguarding and governance.
Based on both authors' extensive experience in this area, this text provides a practical approach to advising on employment issues for Schools of whatever variety, whether they be maintained, academies or independent. Aimed at all those advising clients in this sector, whilst also being a useful text for those primary advising employees in the sector as well, the text focuses on key issues unique to the sector; including:
Who is the Employer? An examination of the different types of educational institutions and the intricacies unique to each. Disciplinary and misconduct issues - including safeguarding issues and the role of the barring authorities. Performance management including sickness absence; performance related pay and the statutory appraisal framework. Holiday Pay in the post Harpur Trust v Brazel world. TUPE in the Education Sector. Trade Union relations and Industrial Action. Pensions - an examination of key areas practitioners should be aware of in dealing with the Local Government Pension Scheme and Teachers' Pension Scheme, with particular reference to restructuring.
