Plain-English statute summaries with key provisions, exam routes, and official source links.
Each summary gives the statutory purpose, the provisions to check first, and the exam move that usually matters.
Public law and civil liberties
Brings Convention-rights analysis into domestic public-law reasoning through public-authority duties, rights-compatible interpretation, and declarations of incompatibility.
Key provisions
Exam route
Start with the claimant, the public authority, the engaged right, the interference, and the justification standard.
Employment, services, education, and discrimination
Consolidates core discrimination protections around protected characteristics, prohibited conduct, reasonable adjustments, exceptions, and enforcement routes.
Key provisions
Exam route
Separate the protected characteristic, comparator or group disadvantage, justification, and available remedy.
Consumer contracts and unfair terms
Sets consumer-facing rules for goods, services, digital content, statutory remedies, and unfair contract terms.
Key provisions
Exam route
Classify the contract first, then move through statutory quality terms, short-term remedies, and any unfair-term issue.
Company law and corporate governance
Provides the main company-law framework for incorporation, directors duties, shareholder rights, accounts, filings, and remedies.
Key provisions
Exam route
Identify the company actor, the source of power or duty, the breach, and the proper claimant or remedy.
Privacy, information law, and compliance
Supports the UK data-protection regime through processing rules, data-subject rights, enforcement powers, and sector-specific provisions.
Key provisions
Exam route
Work through controller or processor status, lawful basis, rights request, exemption, and enforcement consequence.
Commercial sale of goods
Governs many business-to-business sale-of-goods questions, including implied terms, transfer of property, delivery, acceptance, and remedies.
Key provisions
Exam route
Pin down whether the buyer is a consumer or business, then apply the implied term and remedy sequence.
Find the section that creates the right, duty, offence, power, exception, or remedy before reading commentary.
Definitions often control the answer: person, worker, public authority, consumer, data, company, goods, or service.
Treat carve-outs, limitation clauses, defences, and schedules as separate issues rather than footnotes.
Use the statutory words in the application paragraph and show exactly which facts satisfy or fail each element.
For any Act, record the short title, commencement status for the relevant provision, definitions, amendments, leading cases, and one problem-question fact pattern.
