From 2021 Law degrees are no longer accredited or approved by either the Bar Standards Board (BSB) or Solicitor’s Regulation Authority (SRA). The WGU programme(s) will prepare students for a career in law by providing some of the academic and professional foundations for sitting the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) 1 and 2 and the Bar Training Course. The programmes cover necessary legal subjects, referred to in the professional bodies’ qualifying regulations as the Foundations of Legal Knowledge and the SQE1 Functioning Legal Knowledge (FLK) subject areas Students will complete qualifications the law elements of which have been developed in partnership with legal professionals representing firms local to the University. The programme will be provided by a team whose Criminology and Criminal Justice programme has been in the top ten in the UK for student satisfaction for three years in a row The degree will be delivered from a department at the University with almost twenty years’ experience of delivering flexible face to face and online higher education programmes. The programmes cover the necessary legal subjects, referred to in the professional bodies’ qualifying regulations as the Foundations of Legal Knowledge and the SQE1 Functioning Legal Knowledge (FLK) subject areas Law degrees, and other degrees incorporating elements of law, are not only a great foundation for careers in law, but also business, and a huge range of careers in the criminal justice and social care arena The programme will be provided by a team whose Criminology and Criminal Justice programme has been in the top ten in the UK for student satisfaction for three years in a row Work based modules allow student to develop legal experience.

Assessment is carried out in accordance with Glyndŵr University’s Regulations for Initial Modular Undergraduate Degrees, Diplomas, Certificates, and Foundation Degrees. Opportunities for formative assessments will feature regularly in order that students can gauge their own benchmarks and plot their own progress. These will include short pieces of writing and on-line exercises. Levels five and six will also include formative assessments but these will be less frequent and more self-directed i.e. students will be expected to be active in identifying their own strengths and limitations. A range of summative assessments has been designed to encompass rigorous academic requirements and also to accommodate individual differences in preferred learning style. Consequently there is a mix of essays, on-line multiple-choice tests, individual and group presentations and role plays. Exams feature prominently. This is because to become a solicitor in England and Wales from 2021 onwards, two SQA exams must be passed. Accordingly it is prudent to progressively expose students to examination conditions to develop their familiarity and skills in such assessments. Importantly, some of the assessments have been designed to reflect the professional requirements of legal practice - associated with accurate and professional presentation of evidence/knowledge and self. Assignments are set in advance and provided to students in module handbooks and marked and returned by module (using the online system Turnitin) with students being given in depth electronic feedback on all assessments within an appropriate timescale determined by University regulations (within 3 weeks). Assessment criteria are published in the student programme handbook issued at the beginning of the academic year, and are drawn from published good practice guidelines. In order to maintain an approach where students can develop their own interests and refer to their own experiences many assignment questions can be answered from different perspectives. However the design of the assessment task (outlined in further detail in the module specifications) will ensure that the learning outcomes will be met, therefore within a cohort of students there may be several approaches to a single question. Each level entails a similar amount of work from students in terms of the number and lengths of assessment tasks, but the content will become increasingly demanding to reflect the developing complexity of material at each stage. The assessment strategy focusses on assessing achievement in meeting the academic learning outcomes of the programme but with a view, to preparing students for the workplace.
