Help with interview presentation please. I'm confused!

Can anyone help me or advice me on the topic of the interview presentation I have to give in the new year? I am unemployed and it has been many years since I've had an interview. I don't know if I'm just not understanding the question or if I'm really clueless on the subject. I'm so nervous and any help would be appreciated. Also on what they might ask me following the presentation? It is to be a 5 minute presentation so how many slides and how much on the slides?
The job is with an awarding body (think AQA or OFQUAL or similar)

"As part of your orientation in ..... you have been asked to prepare a five-minute presentation to be delivered to .....’s staff involved in the development of qualifications and assessments. The purpose of the presentation is to inform staff of ....'s responsibilities under the Equality Act (2010) and Public Sector Equality Duty. The presentation should draw directly on the Act and Duty and suggest specific, practical steps that staff can take to ensure that .... discharges its responsibilities effectively in the way it develops qualifications and assessments"

I know what the Equality Act and PSED are but I'm confused as to what else they want me to say and would be looking for?

Do they count as a public body? If so there are specific duties for them - as well as the general duties in the act. They are looking for you to explain in layman's terms the impact of the act etc on them as an organisation and as individuals.

Five minutes is very short. I'd create a title slide and two others.

Five mins is very short so no more than three slides. Stick to the timing and rehearse it in advance

Slide one

Agenda
:Key responsibilities under the Equality Act (2010),
Key responsibilities and Public Sector Equality Duty

Slide two
What this means for you
Key steps to take under the equality act
Key steps to take under the public sector equality duty

Slide three

Why

How these steps help you discharge your responsibilities, comply and what benefit they bring in developing qualifications and assessments

Keep it high level. You’re looking at maybe six to eight bullets per slide max. The slides shouldn’t be too busy. You need to demonstrate uou understand the acts, can pull out the key requirements that are important and know how to implement them.

Good luck.

yes they are a public sector body

Thank you for those tips. @Bluntness100 would your suggestions not take me over 5 mins?
