Great article here by Jonathan Rayner to provoke discussion on the law around self-defence - particularly relevant for AQA students doing Unit 3 Section A of the new spec as a starter.. should get them fired up, particularly the Tony Martin case!

For application, why not ask students to look at this clip from the recent (failed) prosecution of Steven Gerrard and ask them to present arguments from either prosecution or defence standpoints on the question of self-defence?
