Seminar on the Basics of Contract Law and applying these to contracts between special schools and Local Authorities for Children with EHCPs
(previously advertised as Contracts 101 what schools need to know webinar)

Seminar via Zoom
Monday 18th March 2024
9:30 am – 12:30 pm

This event is only open to NASS members

In December 2023 NASS published legal advice on schools’ ability to charge fees. The advice, and our subsequent webinar, emphasised the role contracts play in supporting or limiting schools’ ability to set and recoup fees of their choosing.

In this seminar, Leonie Cowen joins us again to explore what every school needs to know about the contracts it uses, how to get it ‘right’ and how to respond if the local authorities they are working with get it ‘wrong’.

The session will cover:

• What is a contract?
• When is a contract triggered? When is it terminated?
• The role of contracts when statutory services are being provided
• What is a fee?
• What is happening in practice?
• Auditing your schools’ contractual arrangements

As this is a virtual event you will require audio/visual capability i.e. desktop with webcam plus headphones and a microphone or laptop/device with microphone and camera.
