AQA RSS01 Ethics- help!!

I am studying for the AQA Ethics exam on Tuesday and I am struggling with basic english..

How do I write all of the six fundamental principles in an essay with good grammar?? Like I don't want to just write:

The first proposition is 'blah blah blah'. This means ~~~. The second proposition is 'blah blah blah'... and so on.

It sounds so ridiculous but can someone please help

Are you referring to the six fundamental principles of Situation Ethics?

Yes sorry I forgot to mention that bit

If you're asked to apply Situation Ethics to a moral issue, then you've got a walk in the park. I had that question and applied each of the fundamental principles to Capital Punishment. You can perhaps expand on 2 or 3 of the fundamental principles and then apply the other 3 very basically just to show you have understanding of all the principles.

It's unlikely you'll have time to expand on all 6, unless the question directly asks you about the fundamental principles. So, my advice would be to go into depth with at least 3 and then mention the others in passing if the question is quite generic (e.g. Explain the general principles of Situation Ethics).
