A-Level Law

Law raises some hard-to-solve problems in the search for a just solution, but it is great fun to study' (Lady Hale - First Female Justice and President of the US Supreme Court)

The A level Law curriculum seeks to create effective and skilful Law students regardless of prior knowledge, understanding or exposure to the subject. This is done through engaging, challenging and supportive teachers who, through their passion for the subject, strive to ensure the very best experiences in teaching and learning for all learners. The curriculum is ambitious in exposing students to not only the curriculum, but to real-world examples and cases.

Across the two-year programme, you will study a broad range of Criminal, Tort, and Contract Law, covering topics including murder, manslaughter, assault, theft, negligence, liabilities, and defences. You’ll take a deep and critical look at the nature of law and the English legal system, considering ideas of morality, justice, and the law-making process.

SM6 Law students have progressed to study at some of the most prestigious universities and thereafter pursue successful legal careers as well as students securing legal apprenticeships and careers in other linked areas such as the Police.
