Law (Test)

At Runshaw we have great industry links and
our students gain valuable work experience at
local and national firms including Allen & Overy.
To complement their studies at Runshaw,
students are offered numerous opportunities
to develop their understanding and knowledge
of law.
Our annual London residential includes visits
to the House of Parliament, Royal Courts of
Justice, the famous Old Bailey, Lincolns Inn,
and the London Dungeons! Furthermore,
students can join the optional weekly Law
Academy to improve legal skills, act as an
advocate, mentor school pupils and take part
in competitions; all opportunities that enhance
their CV.

Our team were Bar National Mock Trial
Competition Finalists in 2017 and 2019 which
took place in the Royal Courts of Justice,
London and the Court of Session, Edinburgh,
where we were awarded Best Overall
Advocate. Students have also attended the
World Mock Trial Championships in New York
in the same year competing against teams
around the world.
The college has its own fantastic courtroom
with gowns and wigs for students to practice
their advocacy skills!
1:1 support is offered for all university law
entrants, including LNAT and Oxbridge
preparation classes to enhance chances of
securing a university place.
