Law

Studying law is an opportunity to study the foundations of what makes England tick. When learning law, students learn to think critically by analysing our legal system, applying the law to real scenarios and constructing concise arguments to support their view.

Our shared goal is to foster a love of the law and set our students on the path to success by encouraging them to analyse and offer solutions to problems based on the very legal principles which govern our country. To build their own conclusions and develop their own legal arguments. To think as lawyers do.

Our curriculum aims to ensure that all students develop legal knowledge, conceptual understanding, key skills and learner attributes. The curriculum is a progression model, through which students understand the basic legal principles which govern our country before developing and applying them to criminal, tort and human right scenarios. Students will evaluate and analyse the core legal theories on the nature of law to develop their own evaluative perspective. Our curriculum is underpinned by the following core concepts:
