Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out Sally Spence's claim against Herne Bay Infant School and Kent County Council. The judgment does not identify the causes of action or make findings on their merits.
The Tribunal had written to Ms Spence on 18 February 2026, warning that it was considering striking out the claim under Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 because the claim appeared not to have been actively pursued. The letter allowed her to explain why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing. She did not reply, and the Tribunal struck out the claim. No remedy was recorded.

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.
