A-Level Law Bridging Work Document

This resource is designed to be provided to Year 11 students who are taking Law at A-Level.

It is designed for the Eduqas syllabus but is pretty universal! It can easily be adapted to suit any course you want :) The introduction says it is for Eduqas and you will be studying contract, but easily edited (you definitely have my permission to do this)

Tasks:

(1) Sort the key terms into criminal and civil
(2) Write a definition of the key terms from task one
(3) Research a recent English or Welsh law case and make a note of: facts; importance; what was decided; why you chose the case
(4) Research arguments for and against the death penalty ready to write an essay about it in week 1 (this can be used as a baseline assessment of student writing style/ability)

Document is bright, colourful and fun. It is meant to be appealing to students. It is designed to start to give them a foundation in terminology but is also helpful as a teacher to diagnose ability levels early on.
