Why Study GCSE Law?
If you fancy yourself in a horsehair wig centre-stage at the Old Bailey this could be your starting point. Even if you aren't planning a glittering legal career GCSE Law covers subjects like employment and contract law that affect almost everyone whatever their job. Passing GCSE Law shows that you can deal with complicated topics and present information clearly.
GCSE Law: What Will I Study?
The GCSE Law course covers how the law works in the UK. You'll learn about the different types of court and the different jobs that people do in them. How laws are made and why we need them will also be covered.
Most of the exam syllabuses also ask you to study different areas of the law. Common topics are employment law, contract law, the law and families, civil liberties and human rights law. You'll consider how the law applies to different cases and learn how to present a legal argument.
GCSE Law is assessed by exams, usually involving short essays. Some exam boards are introducing a computer based test as well. GCSE Law would suit students who are good at remembering facts and can present a well written argument. Some of the topics covered will overlap with courses in politics, business studies and citizenship.
