Mini pupillage is the best way to get a feel for life at 2TG. We offer 12 mini pupillages per year in three set weeks. Mini pupillages are 3 days long and during that time we aim to show you a range of barristers' work. You will be asked to undertake an assessed piece of work and a short interview at the conclusion of the mini pupillage. We take successful mini pupillages into account when considering applications for pupillage. Please note that applicants will only be considered after their first year of a law degree or during CPE. The best time to do a mini pupillage is in the year or so prior to applying for pupillage.

In the 2016/17 term year, mini pupillages will be offered in the following periods:

  • 25- 29 July 2016. The deadline for applications is Friday 3 June 2016.
  • 5- 9 December 2016. The deadline for applications is Friday 28 October 2016.
  • 13- 17 March. The deadline for applications is Friday 27 January 2017.

We fund expenses (travel, accommodation etc.) of up to £250 for each mini pupillage. We ask that you provide receipts to our Pupillage Administrator either during or after your mini-pupillage and we will arrange reimbursement. Demand for mini-pupillages substantially exceeds the number of spaces available. If you are not offered a mini-pupillage please do not regard this as a discouragement to apply for a full 12 month pupillage when the time comes. Your application will be assessed with other applications for the same mini-pupillage week.

Please complete the application form on screen and return it to our Pupillage Administrator. Applications via email are required. You should also download the Referee report form, pass it to your referee and ask them to send it to the Pupillage Administrator. This also can be done by email. 2TG is also a partner in the Inner Temple Pegasus Access Scheme, which supports wider access to working at the Bar through funded mini pupillages at supporting chambers.
