You will learn the skills that will enable you to become an independent learner and to function successfully in legal employment – interviewing, negotiation, research, analysing, mooting. You will also have more structured class contact in Year 1 of your law programme to support your transition to Higher Education.

The approach to teaching and learning is 'student-centred': this means responsibility for achieving learning outcomes is placed on student initiative in self-managing your own programme of study. Staff help by providing you with appropriate learning materials and support, such as module handbooks, lecture outlines, reading lists and online student support. You will be encouraged to adopt an independent approach to learning through effective use of private study time in researching information and responding to tasks and questions.

You will be supported both academically and pastorally through this process by academic staff responsible for the modules studied and also by a year tutor, who is an academic member of staff with special responsibility for looking after you for each year of your degree.
