FLK consists of core areas of law covered in your law undergraduate degree or conversion course, plus the practice subject areas which you will learn in SQE1 Preparation. You’ll receive learning materials that will refresh your memory and support your revision of the core areas of law you learned in your law undergraduate degree or law conversion course. What you'll revise:
- Contract (FLK1)
- Tort (FLK1)
- Criminal Law (FLK2)
- Land Law (FLK2)

Assessment method
Our internal assessments count towards your Postgraduate Certificate award. For SQE1 Preparation, you’ll sit multiple-choice assessments, which are written in the same style as the SQE1 papers and reflect the required knowledge you will need to pass the external assessment. You’ll also be required to submit a portfolio of skills and a reflective statement to demonstrate the development of your core legal skills.
