English Constitution Masterclass

The English Constitution may not come with a single bound volume, but it carries centuries of tradition, influence, and carefully balanced institutions. This masterclass unpacks the Crown, Cabinet, Commons, and Lords without the need for powdered wigs or ceremonial flattery.

You’ll study the interaction between constitutional components, their symbolic roles, and their ongoing relevance in governance. With modules dedicated to the monarchy, royal family, and both houses of Parliament, the course offers a direct, structured path through Britain’s unwritten, but undeniably potent, constitution.
