Magistrates in the Community Group

 

Schools and Colleges

 

The MIC Project was originally known as The Schools Project.

To this day the main emphasis of the MIC initiative is still directed towards schools and it is here that there has been a dramatic expansion and development of our work - especially since "Citizenship" has become part of the National Curriculum.

For schools and colleges we are happy to offer:

Presentations - for all ages from 8 upwards

Court visits - chiefly as part of a "presentation" programme

Schools/6th Form Open Days - to include court visit, inter-agency briefings and mock court work with sentencing exercises

Mock Trial Competition - assistance from dedicated magistrates in preparing schools for the national competition.

Presentations fit into a number of curriculum areas such as:

Citizenship studies, Personal and Social Education (PSE), Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural Development (SMSC), English, Drama, Law and Media Studies
