Who makes the law and who really has power? What
happens when rights conflict? How do we decide what is fair and just? A Level
Law gives you the chance to explore the rules that shape society and question
how well they work in practice.
You will learn how to analyse, interpret and challenge the law with
confidence. This course suits students who enjoy working with complex ideas and
are comfortable questioning different viewpoints. You will develop the ability
to think logically, build clear and well-supported arguments, and assess legal
problems in a structured way. These are valuable skills that can support
progression into law, business, politics and a range of professional careers.
You will study a range of legal areas and apply your knowledge to real-world
scenarios.
Assessment:
Assessment is through a linear qualification, with all exams taken at the end
of the course. You will complete three written exams, each lasting two
hours.
Paper 1 covers the English Legal System and Criminal Law. Paper 2 focuses on
the English Legal System and Tort Law. Paper 3 explores the English Legal System
and Human Rights Law.
English Legal System:
Understand how the law works in practice, including the role of judges, legal
personnel, juries and magistrates. You will explore the rule of law, access to
justice, funding and alternative ways to resolve disputes.
Criminal Law:
Study serious offences such as murder and manslaughter, as well as property
offences including theft and robbery. You will also look at attempts, non-fatal
offences such as battery and grievous bodily harm, and key defences including
intoxication, self-defence and insanity.
Tort Law:
Explore civil responsibility and liability, including negligence, occupiers’
liability and private nuisance.
Human Rights Law:
Learn about fundamental rights such as the right to life, liberty, privacy
and freedom of expression, and how these rights are protected in the UK and
internationally.
Beyond the classroom, you will have opportunities to take part in enrichment
activities that help you build confidence and develop your communication skills.
You can lead and take part in the student-led Advocacy Society, enter funded
Oracy and Essay Prize competitions, and represent the college in national
competitions such as Young Citizens Bar Mock Trials and Rotary Youth Speaks.
These experiences help you develop your voice and gain valuable real-world
experience.
