What the college says

The A level combines the study of the key components of the legal system, such as how we make and amend laws both through Parliament and the Courts, how and why we sentence offenders and how civil law and claims work, with more detailed exploration of three substantive areas of law: Criminal, Tort and Human Rights. Through the course, students will develop a detailed understanding of how the English Legal System works, as well as the ability to critically explore the core areas and their current interpretation. They will also be able to apply their learning to a range of scenarios, to determine the effect of the law on a fictional claimant or defendant.
