School Mock Court Case Project

School Mock Court Case Project Scottish charity providing equal learning opportunities. For whatever reason Mrs Telfer ended up with a new phone - and a new contract.

ARE YOU READY TO TRY?! 💡🔆
Be part of our program through this case example :

The project centres around poor Mrs Telfer, a pensioner, who asked her grandson to get a new battery for her aged mobile telephone. Who was at fault, Mrs Telfer, her grandson or the phone provider, All Talk Communications t/a Talk 'n Txt? Throughout, the students have to battle an invoice which contains errors, a 'best

plan' offer, a contract, correspondence and legislation that encompasses two jurisdictions. They have to produce art and newspapers at various intervals that reflect their progress before presenting their case to a real Sheriff by way of making submissions and using witnesses and productions. Give the kids a chance to be part of this debate!

We are delighted to invite senior students in Scotland to apply to join Scotland’s delegation at the International Moot Court 2025, taking place from 25 November to 2 December 2025 in Câmpulung Muscel, Romania.

This exciting international event brings together high school students from across the world to debate and develop their understanding of international law. It promotes civic education, human rights, the rule of law, and international justice, while also offering the chance to exchange ideas and gain valuable intercultural experience.

All accommodation, meals, local transport, excursions, museum visits, and conference materials in Romania will be covered by the organisers.

Participants will need to pay for travel to and from Câmpulung Muscel, along with a participation fee. We will confirm the exact amount shortly.

While this invitation is open to all senior students in Scotland, priority will be given to those who have taken part in the Mock Court programme.

Participation in this event requires consent from the school and the student’s parent, guardian, or responsible adult.
