Year 10 mid-year exams

To help Year 10 students feel confident and well-prepared for their exams, a range of targeted Skill Booster sessions are offered throughout the coming weeks. These sessions are designed to equip students with practical skills and strategies to support their study habits and manage exam-related stress. We have offered the following skill booster sessions to students to attend: 

• Organisational Skills & Motivation 

Students will explore effective, evidence-based methods to prioritise homework tasks and manage their time. The goal is to help them get the most out of every study session and feel in control of their workload. 

• Active Revision 

This session introduces practical strategies for how to revise- not just what to study. Students will learn techniques to engage with content more actively and retain information more effectively. 

• EAL Support & Command Terms 

EAL Support: Specifically designed for English as an Additional Language learners, this session offers strategies to build fluency and confidence when responding to exam questions. 

Command Terms: Students will learn to understand and respond accurately to different instructional verbs (e.g., explain, compare, evaluate), which are critical for targeting their responses in exams. 

• Stress Management 

Students will be guided through practical ways to manage stress and anxiety leading up to exams. These tools can help maintain focus, reduce overwhelm, and support overall wellbeing. 

If you have any questions or would like more information about how to support your child during this busy period, please don’t hesitate to contact at the sub-school office.
