Eleanor Witterick is currently studying for her Graduate Bachelor of Laws Degree (LLB) from University of London with the Institute of Law.

The University of London awarded her a Certificate of Excellence earlier this month to recognise that she was one of the top three performing students internationally in last summer’s Tort examinations.

Ms Witterick, who also works as a conveyancer at Carey Olsen, said: “I am delighted to receive the award. It is a great testament to the excellent teaching and support offered at the Institute of Law”.

Professor Janine Griffiths-Baker, Chief Executive and Dean of the Institute of Law, added: “This is a wonderful achievement by Eleanor, especially given the thousands of students who undertook the examinations worldwide. Our small class sizes and one-to-one contact with our lecturers enable us to provide exceptional teaching whilst getting to know each of our students individually.”
