Topic: English Legal Systems
Paper: Paper 1: The Nature of Law and the English Legal System
Exam Board: Eduqas

This is a revision workbook designed to help support students with revision on English Legal System. This can be used as whole class revision support or as an individual intervention for students who are struggling.

I provide this to all students, but I assign students who need targeted intervention specific tasks from the booklet to help them.

It is designed to help students prepare and use simple revision resources.

It is designed to be used over 10 weeks culminating in a full English Legal Systems exam. I recommend using it after students have completed their first full ELS mock so they can reflect on their progress.

Activity 1

Students will create case and legislation lists for each topic.

Activity 2

Students will sort their cases & legislation lists into tier 1, 2 and 3

Activity 3

Students will create flash cards based on these lists & learn them

Activity 4

Students will create a glossary of key terms for each topic

Activity 5

Students will create flash cards based on their glossaries & learn them

Activity 6

Students will create an advantages and disadvantages table for each topic (Part B topics only)

Activity 7

Students will sort these tables into PCP paragraphs to create a generic essay plan for each topic

Activity 8

Students will create flow charts for the AO2 questions (Part A topics only)

Activity 9

Students will enhance their flow charts with definitions & examples and then learn them

Activity 10

Students will sit a full ELS past paper under timed conditions (no past paper is included, these can be accessed from the Eduqas website)

This is designed for the Eduqas exam board but it could be modified to suit other exam boards by removing activities 8 & 9.
