Programme Overview

Legal literacy for the threshold of adulthood.

Sixth Form students are about to become legal adults. The decisions they make in their final years of school and immediately afterwards have a legal weight that they may not yet fully grasp. Our Sixth Form workshops are designed to bridge that gap, giving Years 13 and 14 students the legal awareness they'll need from the moment they turn 18.

The workshop is offered in three time formats: a 1-hour legal foundation, a 2-hour in-depth conversation, and a 3-hour format that includes our flagship mock trial with wigs and gowns. The mock trial is especially valuable for students considering legal careers, giving them a real taste of courtroom advocacy.

Schools considering this workshop for law-curious students may also be interested in our CareerEd programme, which is designed specifically for students looking at law as a career path.
