Key Stage 4 Revision Resources

As you embark on the your GCSE journey, we are here to support you in every aspect of your preparation. This page has been created to provide you with the resources and guidance necessary to excel in your upcoming trial and public examinations.

  

In addition to the teaching and support you receive daily in school this page can act as support for your out-of-school learning. Staff have taken the time to consider how best to prepare in each of your subjects. This includes access to a wealth of resources such as revision guides, practice papers, and subject-specific clinics. Moving forward in the year, support sessions will help you to refine your exam techniques and address any areas of difficulty. This process usually begins after your trial exams in the Spring Term. 

We understand that preparing for examinations can be a challenging process, but we are confident that with a focused approach and our support, you will be able to perform to your highest potential. We are committed to ensuring you feel confident, prepared, and ready for every examination. As always, if there is anything you require your tutors and subject teachers can answer any specific questions.

 In the video that follows, we explain how students can create their own revision timetable in the lead up to their examinations.

In the next video below, there is a short video on how to use flashcards effectively to support students' revision.
