Court of Appeal handing down judgment tomorrow morning in Higgs v Farmor's School.

Will the Court take the opportunity to sort out all the confusion on philosophical belief discrimination, or will it be a bit of a damp squib due to the refusal to allow the school to cross-appeal the best points?

A quote is written in white on a navy background. It reads: “Lean on your support networks. The Black barrister group chats are a great place to vent, to get tips about any silly questions that you might have, and a really nice place to feel better.” – Tochi Ejimofo, Pupil Barrister, 25 Bedford Row. Below the quote are the logos for Race Equality Week, 3-9 February 2025 and the Bar Council. In the middle text reads: hashtag Every Action Counts

For Race Equality Week 2025 we asked barristers, pupils and others to share top tips and advice under the theme #EveryActionCounts - Tochi Ejimofo (25 Bedford Row) recommends tapping into support networks.

This case is going to make a key difference to the thousands of foster carers who work relentlessly with children who really need them- our tenacious clients and fearless legal team @jacquelinemcguigan.bsky.social @chrismilsom.bsky.social have fought to get them the rights others take for granted
