Full-time option (40 hours per week)
There will be an average of nine hours tutor contact per week, divided between workshops and lectures, with up to ten hours preparation for each workshop. The formal tuition timetable will be based around four days per week with the same free day each week for private study. However, for your convenience, we also offer students the option of all face-to-face tuition concentrated into two set days per week.
Flexible part-time options (20 hours per week)
We offer a range of two-year part-time study options, allowing students to combine study with full-time work or other commitments. This flexible approach allows you to manage your time and your finances so that you get the most from your course. In addition, our new online S-mode GDL allows you to fast track your part-time GDL over 18 months rather than 2 years.
And, if you’re studying part-time, there are still plenty of opportunities to meet and work with fellow students and to hone your legal skills through our practice-related activities.
