What the college says
http://www.fulstonmanor.kent.sch.uk/page/default.asp?title=Home&pid=1 Studying Law gives students an understanding of the role of Law in today's society and raises their awareness of the rights and responsibilities of individuals. By learning about legal rules and how and why they apply to real life, students also develop their analytical ability, decision making, critical thinking and problem-solving skills. All these skills are highly sought after by higher education and employers. An A Level in Law demonstrates a candidate’s ability to communicate effectively and to a high standard using appropriate terminology and applying legal rules and theories. The course gives excellent preparation for those students wishing to progress on to degree level study in many subjects, not just Law. The skills and knowledge gained can be particularly useful to students thinking of studying subjects associated with Sociology, Media and Journalism, Business Studies, Politics, English and History at University. It may be of particular relevance for those considering a career in Law including solicitors, barristers, policing, legal secretaries, and paralegals. The course is also of benefit for students considering a career in media and journalism, social work, teaching and business.
