I am 15 years old, and studying for my GCSE's in June 2017. I am currently doing work experience for two weeks at a Solicitors company in Spalding. I am interested in having a future career as a magistrate and I was wondering what route I would need to take to get there. Also, what AS and A levels should I take? My GCSE subjects include; Business Studies, ICT, History, French, Maths (Higher), English Lit and Lang, and then of course three sciences (aiming for triple science).

I must say if you do want to become a Barrister you HAVE to get a Law Degree

No, you don't. If you have completed a degree which isn't law you do the GDL - which is a conversion course.

I'm in Year 11, just finished my GCSE's and I do/did do GCSE AQA Law. Your A-Levels and your GCSE's are completely irrelevent when wanting to become a lawyer. All you need to do is on your half work hard to get into a good Uni for law to get a Law Degree. If you don't get a law degree there are several training routes to join law, but I must say if you do want to become a Barrister you HAVE to get a Law Degree. As you wan't to become a Magistrate Judge you're lucky. You need no qualifications. It's a matter of you signing up in your local court then going through a series of tests and two interviews as well as other things. In GCSE Law you learn most training routes for a job as a lawyer. I suggest you should currently get as many 9's(This new GCSE is confusing for me I don't really know how they go) as possible and do your best in A- Level so you C=C can get into a good Uni for Law. Such as Cambridge(aim high).
