Kaplan Law School works with Nottingham Law School to deliver their Legal Practice Course (LPC), Bar Professional Training Course BPTC (formerly BVC) and Graduate Diploma In Law (GDL) legal qualifications in London. We combine the Nottingham Law School teaching methodology and law course design capability with Kaplan’s extensive educational and training expertise.
The two law colleges share a common management and teaching team and IT infrastructure. On a day to day basis this means that all our staff are part of the Nottingham Law School team. There is an interchange of staff at all levels between the college sites.
Our law tutor team attend training events at Nottingham Law School during the year and pre-meets (where tutors plan the forthcoming sessions) for all taught sessions either in person or by use of video-conferencing.
Nottingham Law School’s LPC is the only law college one to have received the highest possible rating from the Law Society every year since 1993. Kaplan Law School in London achieved the highest ratings in our first validation in December 2007, reflecting the success of the partnership with Nottingham Law School.
