ISC Bulletins

The ISC bulletin is published and sent to the Head, Bursar and Chair of Governors at member schools two or three times a year. It contains a variety of information for schools including: news on the progress of the Charities Act and other significant legislation; legal advice (i.e. on age discrimination); new research (i.e. on universities and "perverse incentives" in the education system) and thought pieces. Most of the articles are written by ISC staff but a number are outsourced to legal professionals.
