Y12 Royal Court of Justice Trip

20 June 2023

Our Year 12 students interested in studying Law at university had an extraordinary opportunity yesterday. They met with King’s Counsel barristers, senior barristers, and even a High Court Judge. It was an unforgettable experience to be in the company of such accomplished leaders in the world of law.

The day included visits to the renowned Royal Courts of Justice, Blackstone Chambers, and Middle Temple, one of the four Inns of Court. Our students were captivated and inspired by the legal professionals they met and the prestigious institutions they explored. They were even challenged to play out a court case on their own!

This unique experience has undoubtedly left a lasting impression on our students, who are now more motivated than ever to pursue their legal aspirations. We are immensely grateful to all the professionals who made this day possible.
