Leading regional law firm Tollers is already using its wealth of experience to work with academy Trusts. Associate solicitor Ryan Chia explains how the right legal support can make a difference.
YOU might be considering an opportunity to become a new academy, to join or sponsor a new school, to form a partnership with another trust or school, or might be an existing single or multi-academy trust which needs legal support. Tollers are here to help.
Tollers already act for several academy trusts in the Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire area, having assisted them with their initial conversions, acquisitions of new schools, and thereafter providing on-going legal support.
Tollers works with you, the Department of Education and the local authority to ensure the conversion and/or sponsorship process is hassle-free, and as effortless as possible. We have been praised for our no-nonsense approach and our clear, concise and timely advice.
Our highly experienced and specialist solicitors have a well-earned reputation with past and current clients for being approachable, accessible and supportive. We aim to take a pragmatic and pro-active role when helping you convert your school to academy status and, afterwards, assisting with the governance and running of your academy or multi-academy trust.
Tollers has now launched a legal support package, Tollers Academy Support which provides academy trusts with a fixed, budgetable, one-off annual fee without the headache of any notice periods to terminate or renew each year. The product is designed from the point of view of an academy trust. Having worked with many academies over the years, we are aware of what is important to you: transparent costings; quick access to a designated point of contact for sound advice; a voice on the end of the phone who can advise you on that employee claim, explain and assist you with that new land and collection building tool, and guide you through the process of dealing with that parent complaint and potential disclosure of sensitive information.
Our package offers access to a wide range of expertise including property, dispute resolution, employment, commercial contracts, company secretarial, corporate and governance, health and safety, educational support (admissions, exclusions, SEN, child protection and safe-guarding). Our product also includes many more added benefits. If you are interested in our Tollers Academy Support package and want to find out more, visit our website for further details.
