Revising Effectively

Revision is key for success in examinations and other assessments. Many pupils struggle to know where to begin when revising so we have put together a series of resources (see below) which will help students revise more effectively. These are informed by research evidence and have been "tried and tested" by previous cohorts.

One resource is the “revision planner”. There are two versions of the revision planner (one as an Excel spreadsheet and one as a pdf to download and print off) that pupils can use to plan the lead up to internal or external exams on a week by week basis.

Year 11 will also have access to subject revision timetables which outline week by week what individual subjects suggest would be helpful for them to revise in the lead up to their public examinations. This information could be used to populate the revision planner. These subject revision timetables outline what pupils can do independently at home to revise. For Year 11 there is also a schedule of in-school revision and coursework catch up sessions that take place each week after school.

Pupils should use this timetable to plot where they should best utilise their time after school and focus in on their target subjects where they need support and attend these as a priority.
