2 Education Alex has developed his practice in education law throughout his time at the Bar. It is an area he is very passionate about. He has a broad range of experience including special educational needs; civil claims involving schools, colleges and universities; claims of discrimination arising in education; internal hearings in schools and universities; fitness to practice issues concerning university students and teachers; admissions and exclusion; and public law claims in the education context. Alex has experience of all types of statutory appeals within the jurisdiction of the First-tier Tribunal (Special Educational Needs & Disability). He has previous experience of the law under the Education Act 1996 and his practice has developed with the changes to SEN law incorporated by the Children and Families Act Representing both appellants and a number of different local authority respondents within this jurisdiction, Alex is an experienced tribunal advocate, an adept at providing pragmatic strategic advice in SEND litigation. He provides regular training on developments in SEN law and litigation strategy. Alex also has a depth of experience in the area of disability discrimination within the First-tier Tribunal s jurisdiction under the Equality Act He is particularly well-suited to representing parties to these claims due to his broader experience of discrimination law arising from his employment practice. He has also been instructed on many occasions in employment tribunal proceedings involving schools, colleges and universities. Cases An appeal concerning a child with a rare and complex genetic condition called Sub Cortical Laminar Band Heterotopia, which resulted in global difficulties affecting her cognitive profile and with specific learning needs in connection to her speech and language. The appeal involved the consideration of complex medical evidence from Neuropsychologists; Educational Psychologists; Speech and Language Therapists; Occupational Therapists; and Physiotherapists. A claim against the governing body of a local authority school for disability discrimination arising from the permanent exclusion of a child with ADHD. The circumstances of the exclusion related to a physical attack on another pupil. An appeal concerning a child with severe and multiple specific learning needs resulting from a Global Market Square,, UAE NY International Financial Centre, UAE 2
3 diagnosis of ASD and ADHD. The appeal involved arguments over the distinction between educational and social welfare needs as a costly waking day provision was sought at 200,000 per annum. An appeal concerning a child with a diagnosis of ASD and ADHD whose parents were seeking an Applied Behavior Analysis ( ABA ) approach to her education. An appeal concerning a young person in his early twenties with a diagnosis of Downs Syndrome, who was seeking a costly residential placement with a functioning restaurant and cafeteria which he could work in, so that he could gain vocational qualifications. An appeal concerning a young person with Cerebral Palsy where the local authority had refused to make and maintain an EHC Plan following a transfer review on the ground that the young person s needs could be met through social care provision. School Exclusions & Admissions School exclusions is a particular niche area of Alex s expertise. He acted as counsel for the Claimant in the case of R (CR) v Independent Review Panel of Borough of Lambeth [2014] EWHC 2461 (Admin), which was the first judicial review of an IRP s decision under the current DfE statutory guidance for school exclusions, and remains a leading case. Alex has experience of representing both parents and governing bodies before IRPs and of public law issues arising from this area. Additionally Alex has experience of clerking IAPs in school admissions appeals, representing appellants, and of public law issues arising from the school admissions process (including infant class size and grammar school appeals). Higher Education Alex has successfully represented students in a number of internal university academic and conduct appeals, and has a strong practical understanding of the dynamics of these hearings. Examples have included allegations of academic misconduct such as plagiarism, fitness to practice issues, extenuating circumstances resulting in under performance at examinations, complaints about unfair examination practices in vivas, termination of studies, and matters over procedural impropriety and breaches of natural justice. Alex also has experience of drafting grounds of complaint to the Office of the Independent Adjudicator for Higher Education and has provided advice on OIA procedures. In some cases the OIA does not offer appropriate recourse, and here, Alex has also represented students in judicial review proceedings Global Market Square,, UAE NY International Financial Centre, UAE 3
4 against universities, for example to secure urgent relief from the High Court requiring a university to permit a student to complete a retake of an examination at short notice. Alex additionally has experience of breach of contract claims brought by students against universities and of providing advice on the merits of challenging OIA decisions on public law grounds.
