LAW

Welcome to Law

Gain an overview of the law in relation to some substantive areas, understand the sources of law and the English Legal System, and explore law and morality. English, both reading and writing, is a significant tool for the study of law, which is a very precise subject.

Watch this video from our Social Science lecturers, Jon Price, Frances Green, Eve Blundell and Silvia Gonzalez to hear all about the Law course on offer at Petroc.

What do students get up to on the course?

Have a look at what students get up to, both in and outside the classroom!

Every year our A-level Law students are given a fantastic opportunity to take part in the Young Citizens National Bar Mock Trials Competition where they are asked to hold a Court Case in front of competing colleges!

The event, supported by Bath and North East Somerset Council and The Bar Council, saw first and second year learners compare two trials as Advocates, Witnesses, Court Clerks, Ushers and Members of the Jury. They even appeared before a Judge during proceedings!

Our students finished as South West runners up last year. Pictured in court are Millie Simmons, Ella Maddocks, Danny Cook, Miranda Agate, Max Hennessey - all set to attend Russell Group Universities for Law!
