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.
