Year 11 and 12 court visits

Schools Program

This program provides VCE Legal Studies students with the opportunity to engage with judges and associates of the Supreme Court and County Court, and observe court proceedings online.

Year 11 and 12 students can engage with judges on a range of topics, including the role of the judge and jury, the right to a fair trial, the complexity of sentences and judgments and matters relevant to their legal studies curriculum.
