Paper: Paper 2
Exam Board: Eduqas
Units: Tort Law, Criminal Law, Contract Law
Question Type: Scenario Questions
This lesson is designed to be taught to students just before Paper 2 for Eduqas A-Level Law.
It contains a selection of activities that students can complete to help teachers prepare students for their exam.
This is designed for the Eduqas exam board but could be modified to suit scenario question revision for other exam boards.
This is the contract law option but can easily be modified for human rights by making your own resources.
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.

This is a game of jeopardy. A link to the jeopardy game is provided (this is an online game).
Students are given five categories and different points (like real jeopardy). Each square shows an advantage or disadvantage. Students pick their square and then state what topic the advantage/disadvantage relates to. If correct the points can be allocated.
This works well for different numbers of teams or as individuals for small classes.

Activity Three - NEWLY ADDED
I’ve amended the lesson to add in an advantages and disadvantages table for each topic. These can be given to students to help guide revision.
