Law firms ranked by client reviews
Education Sector work covers matters arising in schools, academies and other educational settings in England, including admissions, school governance, safeguarding, exclusions, SEN support and disputes with local authorities or providers. A solicitor in this area handles problems such as drafting school admission appeals, governance policies for governing bodies, safeguarding audits, and guidance on SEN tribunals and reasonable adjustments under the Children and Families Act 2014, the Education Act 1996, and related duties.
Where a solicitor protects your position
Decisions on school admissions, exclusions and SEN support can have lasting effects on a child’s education and rights. A solicitor provides protection through advising on deadlines, preparing and presenting evidence for SEN assessments, managing safeguarding procedures, and guiding appeals to school governors, local authorities and, where relevant, tribunals. Regulatory accountability, safeguarding standards, and the governance duties of academies and maintained schools are central to ensuring proper procedure and outcomes.
