Overview

A fun fact about the English Legal System is that the United Kingdom does not have a single, written constitution like many other countries. Instead, its constitution is largely unwritten and is based on statutes, common law, and conventions. This makes the UK one of the few countries in the world with an uncodified constitution. Take on a comprehensive exploration of the English Legal System with our meticulously crafted course. Discovering the intricate tapestry of the legal landscape, this program transcends conventional boundaries, delivering an immersive experience in legal studies.

At the heart of our curriculum lies a compelling introduction to English law, laying the foundation for a captivating journey through various legal domains. Navigate the complexities of Contract Law, where agreements and obligations intertwine, and Criminal Law, where the pursuit of justice takes centre stage.

Dive into the essence of Constitutional and Administrative Law, exploring the fundamental structures that govern our society. An introduction to Human Rights Law beckons, unveiling the principles that underpin a just and equitable world. Traverse the landscape of Tort Law, where civil wrongs and remedies shape legal discourse, and grapple with the intricacies of Property Law.

The culmination of this enlightening journey is a bespoke Legal Research Project, empowering you to synthesise your newfound knowledge and contribute meaningfully to the legal discourse. Join us in this intellectual odyssey, where each module unfolds a new chapter in the captivating narrative of the English Legal System.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
