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.
Stay positive and have faith in yourself!
