Law students also tend to study Psychology, Sociology, English, History, Politics and Business Studies. Year 12: The first year of this course will focus on criminal law. It will enable you to develop an understanding of how law is made through the court system and how it operates and functions in England and Wales, including the job roles within the legal profession and how they are regulated. Your main area of study will be substantive criminal law, where you will learn the legal principles and rules needed to gain a conviction and specific criminal offences including murder, non-fatal offences and property offences to name just a few. Year 13: Our focus is on civil law, where you will learn more of the processes that allow the law to function, including the Law Commission, how law making powers can be given to organisations and individuals and the impact of European law on our law. In addition you will learn two areas of substantive law including tort law, looking at negligence, occupier's liability and defences, and we also look at the rules that govern contract law and the protection we all have under the Consumer Protect Act 2015. You will be expected to not only explain and state the processes of the law but also determine from a given scenario the criminal or civil liability of the defendant by applying the correct rules and cases of law.
• All Loughborough College Sixth Form courses have minimum entry requirements of at least five GCSEs at grade C/4 or above, including English Langauage and Maths. • GCSE English Language at grade 6.
Three x 2 hour exams.
