Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting at Birmingham before Employment Judge Dean, recorded that the claimant Mr A Hewston was not unfairly dismissed by the respondent OFSTED and that the unfair dismissal complaint did not succeed. That claim was dismissed.
The tribunal also recorded that Mr Hewston was not wrongfully dismissed by OFSTED and that the wrongful dismissal complaint did not succeed. The written record states that reasons for the judgment were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in accordance with the note in the decision.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
