What the college says

If you're thinking about studying law at university or getting into the legal profession through an apprenticeship, this course, though not an essential requirement, can be a useful preparation. You don't need to have studied law at GCSE to do the A level but you should have strong analytical skills, enjoy reading and essay writing. Law will give you transferable skills such as analysing, thinking critically, problem solving and communicating effectively that are useful for a range of careers. If you are aiming to study a law degree, taking this subject alongside strong facilitating subjects may broaden the range of institutions to which you can apply.

Entry into the Sixth Form requires six passes at GCSE Level (Grades 9-5) including English and at least a Grade 4 in Maths. This course requires GCSE Grade 5 in English or Grade 6 in History.

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?

Approved for 16 to 18 study on the government's Section 96 list.
