We know that Law is a competitive industry. Future Legal Leaders is an opportunity to build your skills and boost your confidence before you begin your studies.
Future Legal Leaders is for students in Year 12 or Level 3 Year 1 (additional eligibility criteria apply). You should be interested in law, but it's okay if you're not certain you want to study law at university. This activity aims to help you decide whether law is for you.
If you meet our eligibility criteria, you will be considered for a place on Future Legal Leaders. Places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis - there is no signup deadline.
Why should you sign up?
By taking part in Future Legal Leaders, you will:
Experience what is could be like to study law
Start to build skills and a network for your future career
Participate in mock trials and negotiations
Meet law students and legal professionals
The best part? It's completely free.
What will I take part in?
All participants will attend two sessions in March 2026. These sessions are designed to help you decide whether law feels like the right fit for you. If you decide it is, there will be more events to follow.
If you decide to study law at UEA, we'll also offer some extra support to help you with the transition to university.
“I took part in UEA's law programme when I hadn’t yet made a decision as to what university I wanted to attend. I enjoyed every day spent on the programme! It allowed me an insight into the course content, structure, teaching style, and extra curricular activities available within the law school! Since starting Law at UEA I have realised the programme really improved my confidence and has pushed me to join in on competitions ran by the school which have been amazing! Fantastic opportunity!”
