Year 11 Legal Studies

Visiting County Court of Victoria

On Monday 27 May, Year 11 Legal Studies students attended the County Court of Victoria as part of the Schools Program. The program seeks to provide VCE Legal Studies students with a first-hand experience of the Victorian justice system. Students were provided with a unique opportunity to meet and interact with a County Court judge - Judge Judge Marks - and observe legal processes  in the courtroom.

 

 

Students also had the opportunity to engage with a Judges Associate on a range of topics, including the role of the judge and jury, the right to a fair trial, the workings of the court and other matters relevant to their legal studies course
