In the week beginning 27th July 2009, the Law Faculty hosted the annual Sutton Trust Summer School in Law for twenty four sixth formers from around the country. The aim of the Trust is to improve educational opportunities for young people from non-privileged backgrounds and increase social mobility.

The week culminated in a mock trial featuring the 'death' of a student at the Cambridge Faculty of Law, with students playing all the major roles, including solicitors, barristers, and even defendant!

This is a video of the trial, mocked up to appear like a news report.  (Video introduction courtesy of the BBC)
