    The Education Act 1996 governs core aspects of England’s school system, including admissions, school governing bodies, exclusions, and other duties placed on local authorities and schools. A solicitor practising in this area helps clients with admissions disputes, exclusions, and SEN-related processes, reviews school policies, and assists in drafting or challenging decisions made by schools or local authorities. They may also handle appeals and liaise with Ofsted or the Department for Education where statutory rights or duties arise.
