Managing staff reductions in schools

Join us at our event, managing staff reductions in schools. 

It will be an insightful event designed for schools and academies facing the need to reduce cost and potentially undergo a redundancy process due to increasingly stretched budgets.

Expert legal support

Our interactive session will assist you when faced with the prospect of making redundancies and cost savings. We’ll provide clear, pragmatic advice on the correct process to follow and how to protect your organisation against Employment Tribunal claims.

We’ll discuss:

• How to demonstrate that there is a genuine redundancy situation
• The advantages and disadvantages of asking for volunteers
• Identifying the pool for selection
• The application of a fair selection criteria
• Whether or not interviews should be held
• The consultation process
• Liaising with union representatives
• Redundancy payments
• Specific problems, such as maternity leave
• Changing terms and conditions and alternatives to formal redundancy processes

We’ll use case studies and real-life scenarios, and there will be plenty of opportunities for you to ask questions.
