Why do a summer school course?
Completing a summer school course will enable you to complete Profs at the earliest point in time in the new year, well placed for entering the job market. It will also mean you can also experience the benefits of fulltime study with minimal intrusion into the new year.
Some firms/employers will prefer you to choose this option so that you will be both admitted to the bar and available for full time work at the earliest opportunity. If you are applying for positions in employment at the moment, you will be able to include in your c.v. that you will complete your professional legal training by early March.

Trainees now have a choice for their Drafting Skills seminar, and can elect between: - a property and succession stream (which includes drafting documents and letters relating to property sharing and pre-nuptial agreements, deeds of family arrangement (settling disputes), sports law (sponsorship) and wills); and
- a company and commercial stream (which includes drafting documents and letters relating to sports law (sponsorship), business acquisition and structures, company incorporation, due diligence, franchises, joint ventures and corporate financing).
The availability of this choice has been well received, and is offered in response to law firm and trainee requests.
