Our Legal Studies tutors provide specialised support to help students understand the complexities of the QCE Legal Studies curriculum. They guide students through the study of the Australian legal system, focusing on criminal and civil law, governance, and human rights. Our tutors emphasise the development of critical thinking, analytical skills, and the ability to evaluate legal situations, ensuring that students are well-prepared for both internal and external assessments. We work with students to achieve outcomes such as understanding legal principles, analysing case law, and making informed recommendations for legal reforms.
Unit 1: Beyond Reasonable Doubt
Students explore the foundations of the Australian legal system, focusing on criminal law and the processes involved in the criminal investigation and trial. They learn about key legal concepts such as the rule of law, the roles of police and courts, and the principles of just and equitable outcomes. This unit also covers punishment, sentencing, and the balance between protecting individual rights and maintaining societal order.
Unit 2: Balance of Probabilities
This unit introduces students to the civil law system, including foundational concepts of contract law and negligence. They learn how civil disputes are resolved through courts and alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation and arbitration. The focus is on understanding the obligations and responsibilities that arise in civil contexts and evaluating the effectiveness of the civil justice system in providing fair outcomes.
Unit 3: Law, Governance, and Change
Students delve into the complexities of governance in Australia, studying the roles of different levels of government and the processes involved in law-making and reform. They examine how societal changes drive legal reforms, exploring topics like constitutional challenges and landmark cases. This unit encourages students to think critically about the effectiveness of the legal system in responding to contemporary issues and changing societal needs.
Unit 4: Human Rights in Legal Contexts
This unit focuses on the study of human rights, both in Australian and international contexts. Students explore how international laws and treaties influence Australian law and examine human rights issues within Australia, such as those affecting Indigenous communities. They analyse the effectiveness of legal mechanisms in protecting rights and freedoms, and they evaluate the role of the legal system in advocating for justice and equity.
