Overview
The law is a vital part of our democratic society. Understanding how it works is essential to being an active and engaged citizen.
We firmly believe that every young person should have the opportunity to learn about the legal justice system and how it affects their lives.
Let’s start a conversation about the law in schools!
What is The Big Legal Lesson?
From the youngest students at primary school to post-16 students, The Big Legal Lesson provides teachers with the tools they need to confidently introduce the law into their classrooms.
Since 2020, thousands of teachers have registered to take part, reaching over 200,000 young people. This makes it the largest public legal education campaign of its kind.
Last year, 93% of teachers agreed that taking part in The Big Legal Lesson gave their class a better understanding of the rule of law and how it applies to their lives. 100% of teachers said they’d recommend it to a colleague.
The Big Legal Lesson returns in February 2025. Register your interest here.
It really got the children thinking about their place in society.
