Mini Trials – Paisley Sheriff Court

Well done to the S5/6 pupils who took part in the Mini Trials at Paisley Sheriff Court on Saturday the 24th of November, along with all the other East Renfrewshire Council schools.

The pupils spent the day being advocates defending their clients with great skill, winning both of their cases! The students were a credit to the school and looked extremely smart in their school uniforms.

The attending lawyers and judges at the Paisley Sheriff Court were impressed by the very high standard of performance of the Barrhead team, commenting on the preparation that went in to the performance on the day. All of the Barrhead pupils have been invited back to the high court by the Procurator Fiscal in order to shadow the professionals conducting real cases!

We are certain that there are some budding lawyers in this group!
