As we approach the end of a particularly turbulent academic year, finding the time, energy and buy-in to review school policies may seem less likely than finding a holiday cottage in Cornwall for mid-August. However, as we regularly discuss with our clients, a clear and robust set of policies is a vital first step to getting compliance right. That advice is even more pertinent in a climate which has thrown schools and trusts repeated curveballs. Unfortunately, like a lot of things in life, compliance often becomes most important when we have the least time for it. The summer term is actually a great time to review your policies for a few reasons:
If your policies are in need of review and you would like some help with the heavy lifting, you may want to consider our policy service for academy trusts. We provide a suite of 40 education and HR policies for a fixed fee, all drafted by our team of expert lawyers and HR consultants so you can be assured that they are compliant and reflect best-practice. You also have the option of signing up to our annual update service, meaning you will receive an updated set of policies every September incorporating any new or revised law, guidance or policy positions. See you in Cornwall!
