Pupillage

Applications for 1st and 2nd six months pupillages are considered through the OLPAS system. The policy over recent years has been to take four 12 month pupils, who have been funded along the Bar Council guidelines.

Pupils are encouraged to experience a variety of work during the 1st six months and can expect to gain extensive Magistrates Court experience during the 2nd six months. This work will be predominantly criminal defence.

Applications for 3rd six month pupillages are welcomed and should be made in writing to the Secretary of the Pupillage Committee.
