WHAT TO EXPECT
Invited students have the opportunity to participate in a mock trial, providing an educational experience to remember. This will allow them to gain insight into the justice system and aspects of a criminal trial. This will take place in a real court in front of real judges, with members of the teams playing a range of trial-based roles such as barristers and witnesses. They will compete against other schools.
