'Law for Non-Lawyers''Law for Non-Lawyers'The City & Guilds - 'Level 2 ... ILEX Award/Certificate/Diploma in Legal Studies'.
During the first term of the academic year students will be prepared (in some lessons each week) for the 'Unit 201 - Legal Environment' multi-choice examination which takes place in November/December. During this same period students will be undertaking assignments for 'Unit 205 - Law in the Workplace'. This will be followed by 'Unit 202 - Principles of Liability'.
Unit 201 - The Legal Environment
Unit 202 - Principles of Liability
Unit 205 - Law in the Workplace
The above three Units make up the the ILEX 'Certificate' in Legal Studies which is undertaken over one academic year. Students undertaking the ILEX 'Diploma' in Legal Studies will spend an additional academic year on the course undertaking Unit 203 - Principles of Criminal Law, Unit 204 - Principles of Debt Recovery, and Unit 207 - Consumer rights.
The ILEX Assignment Contract (see Int4 below) should be signed by staff and students. Only the 'ILEX Moderation Panel' can extend/change assignment submission deadlines (your Laws Tutor/Teacher cannot).
Appeal Process: Any student who is unhappy with their assignment grades (or on any other issue - including being excluded from the 'ILEX Legal Studies Course' for failing to submit an assignment in accord with an 'ILEX Assignment Contract') does have a right to make an appeal to the 'ILEX Moderation Panel'. Appeals should be submitted - in writing - to Dr Peter Jepson (Chair of the 'ILEX Moderation Panel', Strode's College). Please see your Laws Tutor/Teacher, Personal Tutor, or Learning Support, if you require advice or help with making such an appeal.

Moodle online multi-choice tests
The student and NOT the Laws Teacher is responsible for fulfilment of the 'ILEX Assignment Contract'. The student is solely responsible for their own assignment materials. The student must maintain copies at all times (both online and in a file). When submitting assignments for assessment the student MUST maintain the original file copy. Once an assignment has been graded the student should also keep the returned marked/graded copy until it is submitted for final assessment.
