Blackwood v Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust [2016] EWCA Civ 607
The Appellant claimed to have suffered sex discrimination in connection with a work placement which she was offered as part of her studies to become a nurse, and she brought proceedings in the Employment Tribunal. The issue raised by this appeal is whether the ET had jurisdiction to entertain her claim or whether, as it and the Employment Appeal Tribunal both held, she should have proceeded in the County Court. That depends on whether the claim falls under Part 5 of the Equality Act 2010, which is concerned with discrimination at work, or under Part 6, which is concerned with discrimination in education.

Michalak v The General Medical Council & Ors [2016] EWCA Civ 172
The question to be determined in this case was whether the ET has jurisdiction to hear a complaint against a qualifications body under section 120 EA 2010, or whether the ET's jurisdiction is ousted by section 120(7) EA 2010 because of the availability of judicial review. There are two related matters which can be summarised as follows: first, what was Parliament's intention in enacting section 120(7) EA 2010 (and comparable clauses in the precursor legislation) and second, does the opportunity to commence judicial review proceedings against a qualifications body constitute 'proceedings in the nature of an appeal' for the purposes of section 120(7)?

ESS Support Services LLP v Pabani & Compass Group PLC UKEAT/0161/15/DA
Appeal against a finding that the Claimant, a British citizen living (and recruited) in the UK, but based in Kazakhstan, was employed by a Kazakhstani company, albeit in circumstances in which there was a sufficiently strong connection with Great Britain for there to be jurisdiction to hear the claim. The Claimant cross-appealed a finding that he was not employed by the UK-based group company. Appeal allowed and cross-appeal dismissed. The case was remitted to a different Employment Judge.
