Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Employment Tribunal struck out J Silburn's claim against Bishops Down Primary School and Kent County Council. The reason given was that the claim had not been actively pursued.
The tribunal recorded that, by letter dated 8 July 2025, the claimant was given an opportunity to make written representations or to request a hearing explaining why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not make written representations, or did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing.
On that basis, the tribunal struck out the claim. The judgment does not determine the underlying merits of the claim. It was approved by Employment Judge Andrews on 7 October 2025.

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.
