Who we are

Law is Schools is a charitable organisation operating in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch

What we do

The purpose of Law in Schools is to educate senior secondary school students about New Zealand's legal system and about legal topics of practical interest.
We send our volunteer tutors into High Schools to teach students about practical legal topics:

• Introduction to the New Zealand legal system;
• Flatting;
• Employment law;
• You and the Police;
• Family law;
• Consumer law;
• Law and the internet;
• Medical law (pending);
• Your rights (pending).
