The content of the module conscientises students on the challenges facing the state with regards to the provision of basic education and the remediation of social injustice. Students are required to think critically about the context of education management, public school governance and human rights in the school environment. The module also requires that students are able to apply what they have learnt to practical situations and be able to formulate new and innovative ways to remedy social injustice. This will empower them to become lawyers who accept their responsibility towards the realisation of a just society based on constitutional democracy within the world legal order. Students accredited with this module can enter legal practice or related fields and implement the principles of education law.
