Mini-pupillage 2021

Each year 4-5 Gray’s Inn Square offers 3-day non-assessed mini-pupillages. Our 2021 assessment is now closed.

The aim of these mini-pupillages is to give a meaningful insight into the working life of chambers and its barrister members. The three days include the opportunity to visit court, participate in advocacy exercises, and attend talks and workshops given by members of chambers.

• Mini-pupillages are available to those who will be over the age of 18 and will have completed at least 1 year of an undergraduate law degree, at least 2 years of any other undergraduate degree, or are enrolled in either a senior status LL.B or other qualifying graduate diploma in law as of 1 September 2021.

• Mini-pupillages are unfunded but requests to reimburse reasonable travel and accommodation costs will be considered.

• 4-5 has a clear and firm Equal Opportunities policy to which it is committed. Applicants’ personal information will not be disclosed to the persons determining the applications for mini-pupillages. Applicants are asked to complete a confidential Equality and Diversity Monitoring Questionnaire, which will not be made available to those involved in the selection process. 4-5 will make reasonable adjustments where those are requested and can be accommodated.
