## Resolving staff issues

Unfortunately, sometimes the relationship between a school and a teacher can break down, and legal advice is required to navigate the complexities of teacher disputes.

We specialise in advising on all aspects of employment and workplace law, and our education specialists can support on all aspects of dispute resolution:

- Grievances
- Disciplinary issues 
- Dismissals
- Settlement agreements; and
- Defending Employment Tribunal claims
