Our Education practice is the largest education legal team and advises HE and FE institutions including private providers. Our dedicated team of experienced education lawyers have a thorough understanding of the legal, regulatory and reputational challenges faced by our education sector clients. We provide “one stop shop” advice and support, including employment, student matters, governance, litigation and dispute management, real estate, corporate and commercial, banking, intellectual property, health and safety, constitutional issues and regulatory advice.
When working on leading edge projects, our vast experience and collective insights allow us to identify what will work and successfully navigate complexity and risk.
Globally, we have education lawyers in Shanghai, Dubai, Paris, Amsterdam, Munich, Doha, Hong Kong, Amman, US and Riyadh. These resources and our comprehensive relationship firm network means that we can support our clients wherever in the world they need our help.
Highlights in the last 12 months include helping clients meet financial challenges and new legal and regulatory obligations and supporting their strategic goals in the UK and overseas. This includes advice on organisational change, estates rationalisation, health & safety concerns, data privacy issues and governance and reputational risk. We continue to be at the forefront of advising the HE sector on free speech and the new OfS regulatory condition related to sexual harassment and misconduct.
