“I will certainly recommend these seminars to fellow students for next year. They have been invaluable.” Angela Dack, LLB, University of Essex

“The revision seminar was the perfect complement to the final stages of exam preparation. I think we all emerged ready to tackle our revision with increased confidence and enthusiasm. I thoroughly recommend it.” Simon Ramsden, GDL, BPP Law School

“Tort was truly wonderful. I wish the lecturer had been a tutor at my College. We covered a terrific amount of material and she gave us a framework for answering any question. Contract was great, excellent on the cases and very helpful on exam technique and the lecturer for Trusts was superb. These weekends have been worth every penny.” Anne Mannion, GDL, College of Law

Bar Vocational Course (BVC) providers were asked for the following information in respect of years 1997/8 and 2007/8:

(a) The total number of the students enrolled on the university’s full time BVC;
(b) The number gaining an award of  ‘outstanding’ at the first attempt;
(c) The number gaining an award of ‘very competent’ at the first attempt;
(d) The number gaining an award of ‘competent’ at the first attempt;
(e) The number failing / failing to complete the course at the first attempt.

Based on the information provided, the table below shows, as a percentage of the total awards, the awards for each class in the years indicated.

Please note that the fail/failed to complete figures includes those who, at the date the information was provided, were either repeating or referred. These students are not technically classified by Nottingham Trent University as ‘non-completers’ – a category reserved by it for those who either failed or formally withdrew. For the purposes of this research, however, all students who did not pass (with or without commendation or distinction) are classed as failed/failed to complete.
