Students and Ms O’Donnell at Manchester Crown Court as part of a trip to enhance career aspirations.
The students took on real roles from a courtroom, including a Judge, Barristers, Solicitors, Jury, Usher and Clerks. They were so impressive in the way they prepared for and argued their cases; there are definitely some future legal maestros amongst us!
The organisers commented on what a fantastic group of students they were and how impressed they were with their intelligent questions and level of maturity.
I didn’t think I would be interested in a career in Law but now I am definitely thinking about it.
