This engaging and informative lesson enables students to make detailed and precise interpretations of the character of Abel Magwitch in Great Expectations, through developing a deep understanding of the key features of the 19th Century criminal justice system.

- Reading extracts about Abel Magwitch in ‘Great Expectations’ and identifying the features of the 19th Century justice system within the text;
- Analysing how Dickens presents his views about the treatment of criminals through the character of Abel Magwitch in the text;
- Peer assessing each other’s learning attempts.

Included is:
- Whole lesson PowerPoint - colourful and comprehensive;
- Extracts about Abel Magwitch;
- Analysis template with success criteria for creating well-structured responses;
