For the human rights options at A-level, you need to be familiar with exam scenarios relating to public gatherings and protests. These questions raise issues of public order powers under the Public Order Act 1986 and other legislation, as well as the common law power permitting police to takes steps to prevent or stop a breach of the peace.
