“The trouble with Law is Lawyers”

Inspire and motivate your students by delivering Law and Justice education using real buildings, real objects and real people. Students will past, act in the present and change their future.

By working with the National Centre for Citizenship and the Law we are able to offer education packages at a range of legal and heritage sites across the UK in London, the North West and Nottingham. The main focus of this day trip is to educate young people to be responsible citizens by providing access to knowledge of the law and legal careers and how the law can affect the everyday lives of young people. Understanding the full consequences of breaking the law will enable students to see the impact on the wider community and help them to become more responsible and active citizens. For those students hoping to enter into a profession in the Justice System this visit is an ideal introduction .

As well as appealing to the Law students, activities are linked to key subjects in the National Curriculum for GCSE and A Levels such as History, Law, Citizenship, British Values and SMSC, English, Criminology, Sociology and more . The suggested itinerary focuses on Manchester but can easily be adapted to both Nottingham and London. Below is a list of sites used for educational visits with the NCCL:

London – The Royal Courts of Justice and The Rolls Building
North West –The Civil Justice Centre and Crown Court, Manchester and Bolton Magistrates Court, The People’s History Museum and Greater Manchester Police Museum.
Nottingham – Galleries of Justice Museum and City of Caves

Please contact our Education Specialist for further information and see the itinerary below as a guideline as to how the day could be organised. Remember this is just a suggested itinerary and all our tours are tailor-made and designed to make the most of being out of the classroom.
