Formal Education in UK Law

R Hurley and Moore v Secretary of State for Business Innovation & Skills
“
The concept of "due regard" requires the court to ensure that there has been a proper and conscientious focus on the statutory criteria, but if that is done, the court cannot interfere with the decision simply because it would have given greater weight to the equality implications of the decision than did the decision maker.

Commissioners of Inland Revenue v McMullen
“
I am far from suggesting either that the concept of education or of physical education even for the young is capable of indefinite extension. On the contrary, I do not think that the courts have as yet explored the extent to which elements of organisation, instruction, or the disciplined inculcation of information instruction or skill may limit the whole concept of education. I believe that in some ways it will prove more extensive, in others more restrictive than has been thought hitherto.

“
The Strasbourg jurisprudence, summarised above in paras 11-13, makes clear how article 2 should be interpreted. There is no Convention guarantee of education at or by a particular institution.

Ojutiku v Manpower Services Commission
“
In Steel v. Union of Post Office Workers, the point under consideration involved the corresponding provisions, in the same terms, of the Sex Discrimination Act 1975.

R (Baker) v Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government
“
The correct approach, which is the one, it seems to me, the inspector follows, is simply that it is for the applicant to establish very special circumstances that override Green Belt considerations. A need to be on or near a particular site may be one of such very special circumstance.

Hampson v Department of Education and Science
“
In my judgment "justifiable" requires an objective balance between the discriminatory effect of the condition and the reasonable needs of the party who applies the condition.
