What is the situation with case law and the need to quote cases?
We are not teaching the intricacies of law but a basic understanding – non-lawyers get hung up with cases and sections of Acts – we don’t expect students to know section numbers. Cases will get recognition and rewards but are not necessary – candidates should support their answers with analysis referring to cases – they can give examples and refer to cases without writing out the details of the case. Candidates should substantiate their points with references or examples.
