Young People-What you can do

  • Attend school every day and be positive about your learning

  • Use your planner/homework diary to keep a log of your learning as well as to record assessment dates/homework due etc.

  • Complete homework for each subject. Written tasks are usually issued weekly but reading and revision of your notes as well as research is expected nightly!

  • Commit to 2 hours of study per week for each subject that you take. This can be written, reading, internet research, past paper completion.

  • Supported Study/Lunchtime classes will be on offer throughout the school. Take full advantage of this.

  • Time management is essential so you should compile a study plan/study timetable to ensure that equal time is spent on each subject and homework is completed by due date.

  • Use revision websites and advice that your teacher gives you.

  • Use mnemonics/Make mind maps/spider diagrams/write lists/repeat lists out loud/test on a friend/practice exam type questions.

  • Talk to someone if you are worried-friend/parent/teacher/youth counsellor.
