How to Apply

This course provides a gentle, yet practical introduction to law for secondary school students, through classes in important law subjects, such as contracts, torts, and company law, visits to courts, and discussions of possible law career paths, and studying law overseas and locally. As stated in the title, this course aims to provide an advantage to these students by guiding them on the difficult decision of a career pathway in law, and provide students with an unbeatable advantage in selecting their desired careers ahead.

This course is model upon our popular summer school law course for secondary school students and is designed to replicate the successful elements of that course into 30 hours, weekend-based face-to-face course for secondary school students, taught by experienced lawyers.
