Academic Courses
The School teaches the Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL) for graduates who wish to qualify as a lawyer without a law degree. The diploma has a strong reputation, and is taught by many of the leading academics in legal education, including John Hopkins and Martin Dixon of the University of Cambridge.
GDL graduates may, through additional study over a second year, apply to receive a LLB degree. The School also offers an undergraduate LLB programme, as well as a two year LLB programme for postgraduates.

Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or courses:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
“The inconveniences and horrors of the pox are perfectly well known to every one; but still the disease flourishes and spreads. Several million people were killed in a recent war and half the world ruined; but we all busily go on in courses that make another event of the same sort inevitable. Experientia docet? Experientia doesn’t.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
