KS4 Revision – Make It Stick!

As the importance and weighting of end-of-course exams for GCSE increases, so does the demand and importance for students to develop independent study skills and learning habits.

Exam time can be a stressful time for young people and together we can work to support your child to make a difference in their attitude, skills and performance in dealing with exams.

The documents in this area will offer advice and guidance for parents and students specifically for GCSE examinations, as well as some revision strategy ideas.

There are also a number of easy-to-print revision templates so that you can plan and organise revision and study time.
