A clear, practical guide to the new Employment Rights Bill

Our Legislative Update gives schools and trusts a straightforward, supportive walkthrough of the new Employment Rights Bill, recent caselaw, and what you need to do next. 

Big legislative changes can feel daunting - but you don't need to figure them out alone.

Join our live session to help you understand the changes with confidence and prepare for implementation.

 

Session highlights

  • A clear breakdown of the Employment Rights Bill and how it affects schools and trusts
  • Key updates to employee rights, leave and flexibility, dismissal processes, and new compliance requirements for employers
  • The latest employment law cases, drawing out the practical implications for HR, leadership and day-to-day people management
  • Practical actions to help you prepare for implementation and stay compliant.

 

You'll also have the chance to ask our specialists your questions in our live Q&A, giving you further support and clarity.

 

Looking for a wider sector overview? The EPM Update on 20 January covers the broader developments shaping schools and trusts, with insights and practical guidance to help you plan for the term ahead.
