Schools, Unions & Change: Understanding the Industrial Relations Landscape and the Employment Rights Act 2025

Join us for a free one-hour webinar at 11.00am on Thursday 5 November, where Aida Smajlovic and Penny Reid from our Schools HR team will be joined by Carl Parker, Industrial Relations Specialist at the Confederation of School Trusts.

This webinar will provide a summary of the current industrial relations landscape in the education sector, explore emerging trends and offer an overview of the key industrial relations changes being introduced under the Employment Rights Act 2025. We will consider how these reforms may affect schools and trusts in practice, including the potential implications for trade union engagement, workforce management and employer preparedness.

This is an excellent opportunity to hear both specialist legal and sector perspectives, ask questions, and gain insight into what these developments may mean for your organisation. Please feel free to share this invitation with colleagues who may be interested in attending.
