When you set your standards as low as Pupillage Portal (the recently-retired pupillage application website), it doesn’t take much to come up with an improvement. Sadly, this seems to be the philosophy guiding the development of its replacement, Pupillage Gateway.
OK, it’s not quite that bad. But it’s bad…
Hopefully the highly unimpressive-looking – and error riddled – temporary version of Pupillage Gateway that is currently online will be improved upon considerably when it is launched in “February 2012” (I think the Bar Council means February 2013). But I wouldn’t hold your breath.
