    This area covers how schools and other education providers operate, and the rights and duties of students and families within the English system. A solicitor in this field handles admissions and transfers, exclusions, special educational needs (SEN) arrangements, safeguarding and child welfare, and appeals or disputes with local authorities, schools, or academies. They draft and review policies, represent clients at panels and tribunals, and advise on funding, transport, and placement decisions that affect a child’s education.
