Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was determined under Rule 21 after the respondent failed to present a valid response within the prescribed time limit. Employment Judge Holmes Date entered judgment for the claimant, Miss T Lea, against Little Frogs Day Nursery and Pre School Limited.
The tribunal ordered three monetary sums. It awarded £3,822.39 gross as damages for breach of contract in respect of notice, £2,953.66 as a redundancy payment, and £1,998.06 gross for unpaid holiday entitlement. The judgment stated that the gross sums under the breach of contract and holiday entitlement heads were subject to appropriate deductions for tax and national insurance, if any, with the respondent required to account to HMRC.
An attached interest notice recorded the statutory interest regime under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990, including 5 November 2021 as the relevant judgment day, 6 November 2021 as the calculation day, and 8% as the stipulated rate. No separate interest sum was fixed in the judgment itself.

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.
