This is a petition which fights against the schools of Law across the country to increase their admissions fee for the Legal Practice Course and the Bar Vocational Exam.

Such a course of action by the schools of law constitutes a mark towards an elite legal profession that excludes those whom would otherwise show talent, promise and commitment to the profession.

It is a disgrace that these companies have decided to act in such a manner, especially considering the fact that their quarter results showed a profit increase. Factor the fall in inflation, it is baffling to understand.

    This is a disgrace! The class and ethnic mix of the legal comumunity should reflect the people it represents. Putting in further barriers only creates an institution that looks elite and serves the elite.How are we to eradicate inequality when the elite continue to feel threatened by the working classes!!

    The current fee for the LPC and BVC is already very very expensive and students are finding it very difficult to afford.

    I sincerely hope that it will not be raised up anymore.
