I was working for a charity as a sessional Tutor that delivered educational courses. I was contracted to teach a ten week (20 hours in total) course and had signed a contract to that effect.
The sole advertising for this course was on the organisations website and despite repeated requests from myself they failed to advertise the course until just 7 days before its commencement whereas normally it is advertised for at least 5 or 6 weeks prior to the courses commencement, As a result the course failed to recruit sufficiently and the course was cancelled just a couple of days before it was due to commence because of low enrolment numbers.
Would I have a small claims case against them for my course fee given that the course failed to run purely because they failed to advertise it sufficiently?
