Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mrs L Carolan, brought a claim consisting solely of unfair dismissal against Bright Futures Educational Trust. On 27 November 2024, Employment Judge Johnson considered the respondent’s application dated 11 November 2024, the submissions from Mr Adnan Mohamed for the respondent, and representations from the claimant, who was unrepresented and supported by her niece, Ms Katrina Wexler.
The tribunal struck out the unfair dismissal claim under Employment Tribunal Rule 37(1)(c) because the claimant had not complied with the Tribunal Rules, and under Rule 37(1)(d) because the claim had not been actively pursued. The final hearing listed for 27 and 28 November 2024 was cancelled. No monetary award was made.

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.
