Revision
Our school’s curriculum builds up the memorisation of key knowledge and concepts, as well as the specific subjects skills and techniques, over time and so the final exams will see students well-equipped for the challenge ahead and needing only to review (not re-learn) what they already know.
Even so, each subject area will offer specific guidance on revision materials and these will be supplemented by scheduled boosters and revision sessions throughout the school year.
Both mock and formal exams will be accompanied by a wide range of subject resources and these will be made available via lessons and Show My Homework / Satchel One.
