Law Trip
Back
In October, year 13 students visited the 3 key legal institutions of the United Kingdom on a Law trip.
The trip begun with a tour of Parliament, including the House of Lords and the House of Commons, during which students witnessed MPs debating a bill. Through this tour students gained an understanding of how laws are made and the important functions of these historic institutions.
Students then visited the Supreme Court, the highest appeal court in the UK. Here, they were able to explore a number of different court rooms used by judges and the Privy Council.
Finally, students visited Buckingham Palace where they learnt about ‘royal assent’ and the monarchy’s role in the law-making process.
