The Institute of Legal Finance & Management is one of the UK's leading membership organisations in the legal sector. It provides qualifications, training, knowledge, support and information for anyone working in legal finance and in legal practice management. Our members include legal cashiers, accounts managers, compliance officers for finance and administration (COFAs), practice managers and sole practitioners. We offer recognised professional qualifications, regular training days on issues relevant to the industry, regulatory information and many support features and services, including an industry magazine. The Institute has become the resource of choice for thousands of leading professionals in the legal sector, including many considering a new career in the legal sector. The Institute is dedicated to driving innovation, advancing education and promoting excellence throughout the legal sector. Our training and education aim to raise awareness, advocate good business practice and maintain high standards, to ensure that clients’ money and assets are protected and treated ethically. We enjoy a close and robust working relationship with the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), the main legal sector’s regulator, but we remain completely independent in our activities and in our advice to members. Sean Hankin, Head of Forensic Investigation and Intelligence at the SRA, gave his view: “Under Tim’s stewardship of the Institute, we have forged an excellent and mutually beneficial relationship. We have liaised closely with Tim and his colleagues in implementing our new Standards and Regulations and we are very grateful for the Institute’s technical expertise and understanding of the Accounts Rules. In particular, the Institute gave us a real insight into how the new Rules will impact firms and their finance and compliance functions. We recently spoke at the Institute conference which was an excellent event. ... look forward to continuing our work in 2020 and beyond.”

The Values Foundation For Faith And Families In Education

the values foundation for faith and families in education

London

In the United Kingdom various providers have always been able to run their own schools, whether via the maintained or independent sector. This has enabled many faith and other groups to establish and run schools which appeal to different cohorts throughout the country. In England, all schools registered with the Department for Education need to comply with regulations and guidelines which are based on legislation and current educational thinking. Schools are inspected and regulated by Ofsted – a non-ministerial department of the UK Government. Since the 2010 Equalities Act, and more recently the Children and Social Work Act 2018, the Department for Education has revised their regulations and guidelines in such a way that challenges foundational religious beliefs and traditional family values. It is very clear that Ofsted and the Department for Education are focused on promoting an agenda whereby “all protected characteristics are equal, but some characteristics are more equal than others”. Simultaneously there has been a calculated and concerted effort by secular humanist organisations to not only investigate and undermine practices in faith schools, but to attack the bedrocks of convention and belief that are the cornerstones of schools who promote faith and traditional family structures. The current challenges in education threaten human rights including the freedom of parents to choose the education they wish for their child.
