BPP has officially launched its new business school in the City of London, with guests at the opening including a number of deferred Simmons & Simmons trainees who recently began studying for a firm-sponsored legal MBA at the business school.

The course, which commenced on 28 September, is expected to be rolled out on a more general basis in the next few years. BPP Business School dean Chris Brady commented: “We are currently working on a five-year plan, and have some great ideas in the pipeline.”
