We were pleased to welcome back alumni Rhiannon, who visited the school this week to speak to students on the law pathway, and her route into the profession through a solicitor apprenticeship at Farrer & Co in London.

Rhiannon (pictured in the centre below) offered a brilliant overview of what the apprenticeship pathway involves and what it’s like to be learning on the job in a professional legal environment whilst also studying for her degree. Students were particularly engaged by her practical advice on applications and interviews and took the chance to ask some great questions about workplace expectations, progression, and how to decide whether the apprenticeship route is the right option.

Thank you to Rhiannon for giving her time so generously and for offering such valuable insight.
