Ready for Benedict's Law?
Benedict's Law is bringing new legal duties around allergy management to every school in England, with the statutory guidance taking effect from September 2026 and the law itself coming into force in early in 2027. For governors of independent schools, this is a moment to get ahead rather than catch up.
This session gives governors a clear, practical picture of what's changing, what strong allergy management looks like in schools doing this well, and what to do now to be ready with confidence, whatever stage your school is currently at.
By the end of the session, governors will
- Understand the key new requirements schools will need to meet
- Be able to spot the gaps in their own school's current allergy arrangements
- Leave with a clear, practical set of next steps to strengthen compliance and reduce risk
