Module: Contract Law
Exam Board: AQA
This is a pick and mix style lesson that runs through all the evaluation points for contract law theory. This is designed to support students with their 15 mark answers in their AQA A-Level exam.
I usually go through the lesson and pick out activities, covering certain topics such as morality, justice and society and in more detail. I ensure I’ve given students enough detail that they can easily answer a 15 mark question on the topic.
The lesson is long but is really helpful for student revision - it allows them to highlight some key arguments that can be used in the 15 mark questions for contract law.
There are appropriate starter and plenary activities that can be used to split over several lessons.
There is a practice essay at the end.

UPDATE
This lesson has been updated with flow charts for each of the torts, criminal offences & contract law issues that students need to know.
For each flow chart they have been given one key case or statute that they need to know.
These can be printed off and given to students to help them learn the very basics.
Activity One
This is a flow chart flash card sort. For each tort/crime etc. there is a set essay plan that students can follow to establish it. There are sets of cards for each of these (you will need to print & laminate these, please set printer to "Flip Along Short Edge).
Students should be given one set each (e.g. negligence) and can then put it in the correct order. If correct they can then exchange for another set. The group with the most complete sets wins!
Activity Two
This is an overview of the paper going through what each part contains. It also advises students to spend 45 minutes on each question.
I recommend giving your students a past paper at this point to ensure they are fully familiar with what they are going to see
Activity Three
For this activity students will pick one topic to revise.
On a blank piece of paper they write down everything they know about the topic.
They then take one of the mind map sheets provided and add the flow chart structure around the outside.
Next they will fit everything they know into the relevant paragraphs.
This activity helps students to recognise that what they already know is enough as well as creating mini essay plans they can revise from
I have included a model one to help
There is a challenge activity that asks them to plan a past paper question
Activity Four
The final activity is a Padlet. You will need to set up your own Padlet and then students can ask any questions they have anonymously. Great for those students who are quiet or feel embarrassed about asking questions.
