Supporting Revision
Before the Mock Exams we will be running a parent information evening that will enable our parents to support their children in revising effectively.
A well-structured revision timetable helps students manage their time effectively, balancing subjects, breaks, and rest. Planning ahead reduces stress, builds routine, and ensures consistent study habits that make revision more focused and productive.
Understanding how memory works helps students revise more efficiently. By focusing on retrieval and repetition rather than re-reading, they strengthen long-term recall and make their learning stick when it matters most.
Personal Learning Checklists (PLCs) are created by our expert teachers and help students identify what they know and what they need to work on. This targeted approach ensures revision time is spent effectively on areas that will have the greatest impact.
A calm, organised study environment improves focus and motivation. Good lighting, minimal distractions, and a clear workspace help students concentrate for longer and get more out of each revision session.
Regular self-testing—through quizzes, flashcards, or brain dumps—boosts memory and confidence. Quizzing forces the brain to recall information actively, strengthening knowledge far more effectively than passive review.
