Court of Appeal adopts intervener’s submissions in Higgs v Farmor’s School and upholds guidance provided by the EAT in landmark case of manifestation of religion and belief – Cloisters Chambers
‘The Court of Appeal has today upheld the guidance provided by the EAT, that was proposed by Sarah Fraser Butlin KC for the Archbishops’ Council, in a major decision concerning the question of how courts and tribunals should approach religious or philosophical belief discrimination cases concerning the manifestation of belief – when people are treated less favourably because they have done or said something expressing their protected beliefs. The guidance will be of real practical assistance to employers and employees.’
Cloisters Chambers, 12th February 2025
