Aidan Flynn is pictured here with some of the law lecturers in the team at Worcester Law School, which is part of Heart of Worcestershire College.

The college is a UK partner institution of Staffordshire University; this partnership was formed over twenty years ago. Aidan is the university’s Link Tutor for Worcester Law School.

This recent visit facilitated conversations with both staff members and a substantial number of the students. These law students are studying on Staffordshire University programmes at Worcester Law School.

As well as being a partner of Staffordshire University, Heart of Worcestershire College is also a major, and highly regarded, UK centre of the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives.

The academic year has gotten off to a fantastic, albeit busy, start. Welcome Week saw the arrival of new and returning students and LPF staff were delighted to begin teaching.

LPF first year students were introduced to our staff

For our first year students, the week commenced with enrolment and welcome talks from the Vice Chancellor, Liz Barnes, individual subject talks, safety talks from Staffordshire Univeristy Police, the societies and clubs fair and exciting activities – allowing students and staff to get to know one another.

Students had the opportunity to chat to staff over a warm drink and biscuits and receive one of the departmental hoodies.

Students enjoyed a few activities to ease them into the academic year…
