This SQE1 revision guide covers the requirements of the SRA SQE1 2026 specification for criminal practice, which will be examined within the FLK2 assessments in January and July 2027. Designed specifically to help you prepare for the SQE1 assessment, it provides a clear, concise and highly focused overview of the subject, and considers the law, procedure and processes involved in advising a client at the police station, pre-trial considerations and magistrates’ court and Crown Court trials, including sentencing and appeals.
The book is clearly structured around the SRA specification and focuses only on the content you need to revise for the SQE1 assessment. It provides plenty of opportunities to test your functioning legal knowledge as defined in the SQE1 syllabus. Each chapter includes five practice questions, demonstrating how to apply the relevant legal principles to SQE-style single best answer multiple-choice questions.
Revise SQE Criminal Practice is available as a print book, ebook and audiobook, and is suitable whether you are following an SQE preparation course, a self-study route, or preparing to retake the SQE1 assessment.
