This course proposes to combine the foundations of law, already delivered in the joint honours degrees, with essential and corresponding practice modules, thus making it SQE compliant. This will make it easier for students to enter the SQE and remove the need for the LPC.

Course Overview

Law and Legal Practice (LLB) has been designed to cover the fundamentals of law and the linked areas of legal practice required to enter the legal profession.

This new programme will prepare students to sit the Solicitor’s Qualifying Exams and has been designed around this national framework. It is entirely focused on employment or self-employment within legal practice. This can only enhance the student’s prospects and make them more competitive within the legal profession’s recruitment programmes.

There has already been a high level of engagement with professional organisations for the existing law programmes and this engagement continues throughout the year. Local law firms such as Peter Lynn and Partners, Graham Evans and Partners, JCP and DJM have been consulted and work with the team to create the opportunity of placements and internships for the students, with a number of graduates continuing into employment.

Career Opportunities

The course team has developed very close links with a number of professional organisations in both the public sector and legal services fields. This has allowed for close consultation on the development of course content and the availability of unique work experience opportunities.

The course works closely with other Public sector organisations, the combination of both legal and public sector understanding and knowledge would be seen as a benefit to the wider legal Justice professions.

The team has developed close relationships with local law firms and organisations and developing work experience opportunities that would benefit the students if they chose to extend into further legal justice study.
