Ben Churchyard
Banking & Finance Lawyer
After finishing at Oakmeeds Community College in 2011, I spent two years at BHASVIC, studying English Language, Law and Politics (together with History as an AS level). I then went on to study Law LLB at the University of Exeter, graduating with a 2:1 in 2016. A year studying the LPC at law school (BPP University in London) followed before I commenced my training contract with Shoosmiths LLP in 2017, qualifying as a Banking & Finance Lawyer in 2019. BHASVIC gave me the springboard to kick-start my career, whilst also delivering two of the most enjoyable years of my life – it offered a great mix of knowledgeable, personable and interesting teachers combined with a culture which encouraged a huge amount of fun.
