Revision

To support students to revise effectively for linear examinations, opportunities are planned to ensure that students can learn a range of revision strategies and explore which work for them.

A Study Skills Programme explores revision techniques and revision resources. Students look at approaches including:

Note-taking
Recall activities
Pre-learning
Mind mapping
Flash cards
Use of past examination papers

Intervention sessions to support students with their work and/or revision take place in the months in the lead up to exams. Staff discuss with students’ which sessions they should attend and any queries should be directed to the Heads of Year.
