Motivated student with a strong interest in law, particularly due to its role in standing up for fairness and supporting others in situations involving injustice or difficulty. Interested in developing skills in argument and reasoning, with an enjoyment of analysing information and considering different perspectives before forming conclusions. Comfortable working with detail and remembering key information, and beginning to build confidence in structured debate and discussion. Currently developing understanding of how law applies across many areas of everyday life, and keen to further explore the subject through future academic and enrichment opportunities.
