Seeking future judges

The winter 2020–spring 2021 Pre-Application Judicial Education Programme (PAJE) is now open for applications

This valuable programme aims to support 'talented lawyers from underrepresented groups to feel more equipped, confident and prepared when considering applying for a future judicial role'.

Due to the ongoing pandemic, there will be three virtual discussion group courses from January, consisting of four discussion group sessions, lasting up to two hours, on a weekly or fortnightly basis. The deadline for submissions is one minute to midnight on 16 November.
