How parents and carers can best support their child

Encourage students to use the revision materials teachers have placed on the Google Classrooms.

Students should aim to revise for short periods but often. It is best to create a revision plan and divide the topics into smaller manageable chunks. Revision needs to be active, students should make flash cards, mind maps or plan answers to exam questions.

Finally a super way to help is to get students to explain what they have revised to you. Students who explain well have clearly become masters of the topic they have revised.
