Abstract

Solicitor apprenticeships are a relatively new route into the profession and Northumbria launched its six-year programme in 2017. Solicitor apprentices spend most of their week in the workplace utilising and developing their knowledge and skills, and one day a week “off the job” undertaking academic study. As the first cohort of our students prepare to enter the final year of their studies, this paper will reflect on how university teaching and learning needs to be adapted to best support apprentices who are different in a number of ways to a typical undergraduate full-time student
