Hi there! Not a teacher but a fellow Edexcel student so I hope my teacher has taught me right. As far as I know you don't need to know all the legislation in detail, though for some you may. For the consumer rights act you should know about what consumers can reasonably expect from a product or service and the different return windows. For the equality act you need to know the protected characteristics that employers cannot discriminate against. I'd also recommend revising on the Data Protection Act as I believe I have seen questions about it on past papers. As far as I know you don't need to know about the Pension Act or consumer work time regulations, at least my class never covered those. Obviously I'd recommend checking more concrete sources such as the syllabus on Edexcel's website or commercially available revision guides if you are able.
