3 Law A-level Programs

Law plays a vital role in society. It provides a means to recognise rights and duties, solve problems and resolve disputes without resorting to violence. A Level Law encourages you to develop the skills necessary to analyse and solve problems by applying rules and to develop the ability to communicate arguments and conclusions clearly and succinctly.

An A level in Law will give you a profound understanding of the complex mechanisms that maintain this pillar of democracy and an insight into the complexities of legal argumentation. It is a challenging but well-respected and very rewarding subject.

This course is ideal for learners who have an interest in developing their understanding of the English legal system. Students will explore a range of topics from murder to manslaughter, insanity to intoxication. We look at how laws are made, how to enter the profession and what sentences can be given to offenders. In Tort Law we discover the rules surrounding negligence and many other areas. In the second year, the exploration of Human Rights will help students to develop an awareness of the rights and freedoms we enjoy, but equally how they can be restricted. We develop a strong ability to identify key legal principles from cases and then use our knowledge to evaluate certain aspects of law, or apply our knowledge to scenarios.d topical issues
