Change management training

Written by The EPM Team | 27 Oct 2025

Understand the legal requirements and good practice for managing redundancies

With the education sector being subject to constant change, schools and trusts must be equipped with the necessary tools to navigate through tough times. Our CPD-accredited training not only provides the essential skills to confidently manage reorganisations and redundancies, but also emphasises the importance of maintaining good working relationships. 

We understand the critical issues that come with such processes and aim to reduce the risk of employment tribunals by providing comprehensive training to key stakeholders. EPM can guide you through these challenging times to ensure your school’s or trust’s success.

  • how to comply with employment law and best practice by looking at noticeable case study examples

  • how to look at alternatives to redundancy, voluntary redundancy and establishing a procedure

  • when to collectively consult, how to carry out consultation and timeframes
