What the Team is Known For
Landmark Chambers regularly receives instructions to act for academies and higher and further education institutions, as well as local authorities, government organisations and individual parents on a wide range of education law matters. "All barristers within the set have extensive knowledge and expertise" of discrimination claims, school closures, and safeguarding issues. Members are also highly regarded for their advisory work concerning children with special educational needs, and they have significant experience of appearing in SEN hearings. Members recently worked a data protection and education crossover case, the outcome of which could have ramifications for the definition of "bringing the teaching profession into disrepute."
Ben Connor and Mark Ball lead the clerking team as co-Practice Directors.
