“Law A-level is a fantastic opportunity to gain a thorough understanding of how the legal system operates in this country. The course offers students the opportunity to learn how law develops; how principles are applied and an in-depth understanding of criminal law, human rights law, and negligence law. So many students have gone onto study law at university having developed a passion for the subject.”

“I chose to study at Rainhill Sixth as I thought it would be the best choice for me. The personal relationships and support given from some of the teachers is incredible which pushed me further and developed me as a human being in many ways. I went on a trip to a conference which David Wilson had organised. I thoroughly enjoyed. One subject I really enjoyed was law. The course was knowledge heavy but really interesting. The teaching style fitted me really well. I was in a small class which really helped in understanding the knowledge and content of the subject law.”
