“Our rise up six positions reflects the great work the Law staff have been doing to ensure students have the best experience possible, from the very start of their journey with us through to embarking upon a career. We are involved in initiatives to ensure wider access to legal education, and are building into the programmes the skills that employers are looking for. ”
