I mistakenly did not include a non-law module that does not count towards my degree classification. Do I need to communicate this to recruitment teams and if yes how?
I personally would email them with this information since the grade is on your transcript. I am sure it will not impact your chances but it is just best to upfront about these things rather than just be caught afterwards. So, my advice is always be upfront when it comes to disclosing important information. The grade did not count to your classification anyway so they might not even care but at least you have been honest.

Thanks for the reply! Yes it unfortunately was a lot lower and I was not aware it would be on my transcript.
As it is a lot lower, it is important to provide clarity on this, as it could be seen that you were purposely withholding this information given the low grade.

If you are invited to the next stage of the process, flag it up at the point you are invited and before you complete that next stage. I don’t think it is beneficial to update them right now, unless you are at the final stages of the recruitment process.
