Ten ways to help prepare Y10 before the summer- (...and not leave it until the mocks!)

1. Provide consistent revision - avoid that overwhelming feeling in Y11 by starting bite-size revision now in breaks & hmk.
2. Use past papers to understand the exam format & timings only

3. Build a schedule for the lead-up to Y11 mocks- having a structured plan can help them stay on track and prepare ahead
4. Share staff availability - give time for them to opt-in and ask for extra help or clarification on topics they're struggling with.

5. Create study groups - support them to work with peers & space who provide support and motivation

6. Help them organise -stationery, planners/revision cards, guides, that help track deadlines & revise content can help reduce stress & improve focus.

7. Promote breaks - important to recognise how to rest & recharge; taking breaks during revision sessions is crucial. Wkend/evening trips or pizza parties go a long way
8. Eating well & staying hydrated - time to start those breakfast clubs to improve concentration & attendance

9. Promote sleep - crucial for memory retention and cognitive function. Teenagers won't do this naturally!

10. Stay optimistic! NEA and feeling Y11 are leaving will be stressful- giving them confidence can help them stay motivated and focused on their goals.
