For schools & colleges

From student
to barrister.

A barrister-led workshop in advocacy, persuasion and the law. One hour, one real case, and every student on their feet, thinking like an advocate.

Book a session How it works
The hour

Not a careers talk.
A real case.

Part one

From student to barrister.

The real, honest route into the profession, with the myths taken apart. There is no single type of person who becomes a barrister.

Part two

Law, justice and people.

What advocacy actually is: persuading a fair-minded listener with evidence and reason. A skill students already use, in debate, in essays, in life.

Part three

The cross-examination challenge.

A real criminal scenario. Students become defence counsel, test a witness statement, build their questions, and take the floor.

Ways to bring it in

Once with impact,
then a fixture.

Most schools begin with an in-person, barrister-led launch, then keep the workshop running through on-demand access or an annual licence, so their own staff can deliver it to every cohort that follows.

In person, barrister-ledKaren attends in wig and gown and leads the session herself, as the witness in the dock. The presence of a practising barrister is what students remember. Fees on application.
On-demand online accessBuy access online and run the workshop straight from your browser. The materials are view-only and locked: nothing to download, nothing to share, and watermarked to the buyer. The simplest, most secure way to take the workshop.
Self-run annual licenceSecure online access for a full academic year: the deck, the facilitator guide with answer key, and the printable student pack. Your staff deliver it as often as they wish.
Launch, then continueBook an in-person session and add on-demand access at a reduced combined rate, so the workshop becomes a permanent part of your enrichment offer.
Sponsorship welcomeWhere budgets are tight, many schools invite a local law firm or business to sponsor the visit. A short sponsorship note is available on request.
