Exam Board: Eduqas Unit: Unit 1: English Legal Systems This PowerPoint is a great resource to help with exam practice or to use as starters and plenaries throughout the two years. Included are 64 5-Mark questions covering every topic studied as part of the Sources of Law element of English Legal Systems. Each question has a model plan to accompany it. Note: You may teach slightly different examples so do go through and update with your own examples where necessary How I Use This Resource Revision practice: These can be given to students and they can have 10 minutes to answer the question and then self-mark using the model plan as part of revision Starter/plenary: These can be copied into lessons or thrown on the board as starters/plenaries Time fillers: Got 10 minutes left at the end of a lesson? Throw a question on the board and get them to do it! Mock exam planning: They can be copied and pasted into DIRT PowerPoints for mock exams to save you having to plan answers Independent revision: Students can use them to revise & practice 5-mark questions Targeted revision: My students often struggle with the 5-markers as they see them as less important so these help them to focus on revision This is designed to cover potentially any question that can come up but I recommend adding in questions if a new one pops up or one with odd wording appears that isn’t covered in the PowerPoint.
