Testimonials from previous Y6MTC:
"Thanks for the opportunity for our children today. They loved it! They came back absolutely buzzing. They had a fantastic day. It’s opportunities like this that might just make that difference in the life chances of our children“ Primary school Head Teacher
"Thank you for organising this event and allowing our children the opportunity to take part. It is really worthwhile, and our children benefit greatly. They enjoyed the additional activities provided by the police and other organisations but primarily the trial itself. The whole class enjoyed looking at the case and learning about the court system."
"The day provided such a unique opportunity for the children - it helped to widen their aspirations, challenged them to exceed expectations and gave them an unforgettable experience. "
"The topic of the mock trial was really engaging and interesting for the year 6 children. Linking it to cyberbully and 'banter' made it current but also got the message across that this is crime that can be taken seriously, even if just meant as a joke. Especially when the defendants were found guilty. "
"The opportunity to win team awards and individual awards was a lovely touch with the children can treasure. The special visitor of the High Sheriff made it extra fancy."
“With the content of, structure, application, drama, fun, pleasant competitiveness and all round sense of achievement, combining with a whole new experience, was just brilliant for the children (and some curious parents 😊)”
“The biggest gesture of a compliment is, where can you find an opportunity like this?, to bring an array of children together, with all scopes of talents, challenges, backgrounds and team work.
They were all winners, no tears, no tantrums and no disappointments, I must say very rarely found when you do children activities.”
“Thanks for a fantastic opportunity. The children were quiet on the way but sang all the way back - joyous!”
“Thanks so much for a great experience for the children, and us all. The children had a wonderful time and found it very exciting.”
“Just to say thank you for a fantastic afternoon at the Mock Trial today. The children thoroughly enjoyed the experience and spent the coach ride back telling us that they will remember the day forever! "
