This is the final report of the research commissioned by the Solicitors Regulation
Authority (SRA) to better understand the reasons behind differential outcomes by
ethnicity in legal professional assessments.
The SRA’s annual education and training monitoring reports show persistent
differences in outcomes in the Legal Practice Course (LPC) and Common Professional
Examination (also known as the Graduate Diploma in Law) qualification routes for
solicitors. The difference is also evident in the new Solicitors Qualifying Examination
(SQE) data.
Differential outcomes by ethnicity are a long-standing problem, affecting all levels of
education and a range of professional assessments, not limited to the legal sector.
