Student Placements

The Chief Magistrate’s Office occasionally hosts student placements for high school (Year 10, 11, and 12) students and university students. To be eligible for a student placement, you must:

  • For secondary students, undertake the placement as part of a recognised work experience program with your school;
  • For university students, undertake the placement as part of an internship subject with your university.

Due to the closure of the Downing Centre, we are currently not taking any student placement applications.
