Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningIn a Rule 21 judgment, Employment Judge KM Ross found that Hawkshead Childcare CIC had made an unauthorised deduction from Miss H Monkman's wages and ordered payment of £748.55 gross. The tribunal also found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded £3,024 in damages.
The tribunal further found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £2,317.81. The judgment records the calculation using a weekly pay figure of £515.07 and the statutory multipliers applied to the claimant's years of service in the relevant age bands.
The unfair dismissal complaint was found well-founded and the tribunal held that the claimant was unfairly dismissed. No basic award was made because it had been extinguished by the redundancy payment. The total amount payable under the judgment was £6,090.36.

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.
