Applications now open for mini-pupillages at 2BR

2BR is delighted to announce our Mini-Pupillage Scheme is now open.  2BR offers mini-pupillages of one week duration with flexibility as to when you can conduct your mini-pupillage.

We encourage applications from students who are in their second or third year at University, postgraduates, and from those who are considering applying to us for pupillage in the next recruitment cycle. 

2BR is committed to promoting access to the profession and also encourages applications from those who have historically been under-represented at the Bar.

Assessment for our Mini-Pupillage Scheme is based upon three criteria:

• Commitment/dedication to the criminal Bar
• Insight into the areas of practice within Chambers
• Advocacy ability

Applications are now open for placements from April 2026 – March 2027.

Click here to download the application form.

Completed application forms must be sent to mini-pupillages@2br.co.uk by 5pm on Friday 6 March 2026.
