Matthew Currey from the Supreme Court and Lizzie Ross from the National Justice Museum with Jane Haynes, an experienced Citizenship teacher and ACT Ambassador will lead you through this interesting session based around the role of the high courts and how students can engage in various different ways. 

In this workshop teachers will have the opportunity to develop their own knowledge of this important area of the curriculum and be able to ask the experts any questions they may have. This area of the law is often referenced on GCSE papers but is historically shrouded in misconceptions. This is your opportunity to improve your confidence when teaching this aspect of the legal system. 

The session will include a brief overview of the history of the courts, how the courts function, notable cases that have been heard and opportunities for students to visit or connect virtually with the courts across the country.
