A MUM-of-three has won an award for being the top student on a law degree course.

Abigail Thompson received the annual prize for achieving the best marks on Worcester College of Technology's part-time law degree course in 2002/2003.

The prize is presented every year by Worcester law firm, Harrison Clark Solicitors.

Richard Green, Harrison Clark's employment law partner, made the presentation last week at the firm's premises, in Deansway, Worcester.

Mrs Thompson achieved top marks in the four-year course, which is validated by Staffordshire University.
