AND
- have achieved 5 GCSEs including English and Maths at grade 9-4/A*-C; and

We understand that you may not have received the grades you hoped for due to extenuating or mitigating circumstances. Please detail any relevant information in your application for us to take into consideration. We also use a Contextual Recruitment System (CRS) to enable us to recruit people from different backgrounds and help us understand your achievements in the context in which they were gained.
Please note that in our application process, we collaborate with Vantage which facilitates connections with legal employers such as Bird & Bird. Owned by Rare Recruitment, Vantage functions as a comprehensive database of candidate profiles, enhancing the efficiency of the application process. Rare Recruitment initially acts as the data controller for your personal information until you submit your application to us, after which Bird & Bird assumes responsibility as the data controller.
