A DAY IN COURT!
A group of aspiring barristers, solicitors and policemen visited Bristol for a very special visit to the Crown Courts. Accompanied by Mrs Clark, after going through bag and personal security, they were able to visit a court room, ask a crown court judge questions about his role and then play the role of both jury and witness as the judge talked them through assessing credibility of witnesses on the stand.

The students were then privileged to witness sentencing, bail hearing and preliminary sentencing in the public gallery.
It was an exciting and interesting visit which gave the students plenty to talk about as well as witness the realities of court and the impact on families of crime.

We are hoping this visit will run again so that more Marlwood students can benefit from this experience.
