JUDGMENT
The judgment of the Employment Tribunal is that the Respondent dismissed the
Claimant fairly by reason of redundancy.
REASONS
Preliminary
1 The Claimant brings a complaint of unfair dismissal against the Respondent, her
former employer.

2.2 Was the redundancy genuine?
2.3 Was the Claimant’s dismissal contrived due to her having raised
concerns about the conduct of the Chair of Governors in a meeting?
