Year 12 students had the unique opportunity to take part in a Forensic Science: CSI Masterclass, hosted by the University of Wolverhampton.

Experienced forensic scientists and a real-life CSI professional with 20 years’ experience at West Midlands Police led the session. Students took part in real life crime scene scenarios, together with forensic science examinations and analysis activities. Students particularly enjoyed the crime scene investigation activity at a bespoke crime scene house, involving evidence recovery, analysis and interpretation activities.

Students and staff alike very much enjoyed the insights gained on this taster day and valued the interactive nature of the learning tasks, helping them to really test out if not only this course, but also this career, would be suited to them.
