The education group at FSP advises on a wide range of legal issues for a number of educational institutions including independent schools, colleges of further education and nurseries. The lawyers in this group have a reputation for providing sound practical advice backed by intellectual rigour and a high level of technical competence. We also understand the special needs of educational institutions that make them different from other bodies in commerce or industry. Property transactions can cause particular problems for educational institutions and the education group provides specialist advice in this area. Charity land can give rise to complex questions, especially if it has been classified as permanent endowment. Our property lawyers can assist you in finding and implementing solutions to these questions. For example, in some cases an expediency order can be obtained permitting trustees to use property for a purpose that would not otherwise be within the powers exercisable by the charity trustees. Other areas in which this group
offers advice to schools and colleges include child protection,
employment issues, intellectual property, mergers and acquisitions,
financing, construction and other capital projects.
