About

Provided by Doyle Clayton

  • Our education team is unique in advising both employers and individuals. We act for schools, FE/HE institutions, education representative bodies (both associations and unions) and examination boards as well as senior individuals in the sector. This provides us with a unique insight into the broad and connected issues that organisations in the sector regularly encounter which many law firm education teams working solely for schools, do not have experience of. It also enables us to advise individuals more effectively and strategically than firms which do not frequently work with education- based organisations. 
  • We are the lead education advisor for the majority of our clients providing their main and in many cases, their sole and only source of legal advice.
  • The “go to” law firm and trusted advisor for the most important education sector work. 
  • In recognition of our outstanding work in the education sector, Simon and his Education team were shortlisted by The Legal 500 in its Annual Awards for two straight years. Only two Education teams achieved this with other being Veale Wasbrough Vizards.
  • The quality of our advisors is unmatched by any other education team. All (100%) of the team’s senior lawyers are recommended by The Legal 500. Clients always work with an established expert – we do not have trainees or employ paralegals.
  • A highly experienced team. All (100%) of its members have at least five years specialist experience of education and related work.
