Preparing Students for Exams

Examinations can be stressful. As a school we aim to provide students with all the support they need to be successful in those examinations and to eliminate that stress.

This is done in a number of ways:

• In all years, students gain experience of sitting exams in the exam hall and doing work under exam conditions.
• Students are provided with revision materials by their teachers.
• Students will be familiar with the format of exam questions and how to answer them.

It is however important that students prepare themselves by undertaking revision ready for any examination. Guidance on effective revision techniques is provided in this section, more specific subject revision techniques will be provided by their class teacher. This section also provides links to the relevant exam boards for each subject to give you access to past papers, mark schemes, and specifications.
