Some insider knowledge
I did the Law & Politics Sutton Trust Summer School at Nottingham last year, and its one of the best things I have ever done; the Notts students who look after you are fantastic, the campus is lovely, the food is pretty good, and Derby Hall is great!
Each day is different, but everyone is issued with a folder of information and a Notts branded satchel bag at the start of the week, with most mornings being filled with mini-lectures, whilst afternoons and evenings consist of careers activites, team-building games, and a disco!
If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask! I'm new on the forum, but I saw this thread and couldn't resist posting!
A few photos of Derby Hall and my room:

Entrance to one of the accomodation blocks (single-sex, with about ten rooms sharing four showers and four toilets)
My room.
Every block shares a pantry, location of food and the popular pantry or 'mantry' parties.
