Revision Booster Classes
Most schools have mock exams in the second half of the autumn term. With the recent disruption due to Covid-19 these mock exams have never been more important. Not only do they provide an indicator for the school of the progress your child is making, they can highlight any areas that need improvement before the final exams next May & June. In preparation for mock exams we will be running a series of revision booster classes throughout the October Half Term.
The timetable for our classes is given below. Places will be limited to a maximum of 12 students (20 for Study Skills and University Applications) to allow for questions and focus on more difficult topics.
Note that these sessions are all ONLINE via Zoom. Details will be sent out in advance of the sessions.
Across the week we will:
- Cover every topic that your child has studied to date so they have revised the entire syllabus in full
- Work through exam questions as a group to gain experience of what can be asked and how to gain the most marks from each question type
- Create a revision strategy that students can take forward into the next half term and use for all future tests
- Provide packs of exam questions and revision materials for each student to use during the week and for further exam preparation
The Timetable

Study Skills
The study skills session on Saturday 23rd October is suitable for both GCSE and A-Level students. We often spend so much time focusing on what pupils need to know that we forget to teach them how to learn, study and revise. In this two hour session I’ll be showing you how to revise effectively, what else you should be doing to prepare for exams and techniques you can use to maximise marks in the test itself. By the end of the two hours each student will have their own revision timetable for the week and a strategy for sticking to it. Previous students have said this session made more difference to their results than anything else, so you’ll definitely want to book your place for this one!
University applications & Personal Statement Writing
In this hour long session we’re going to look at the whole UCAS process. I’ll show you how to narrow down your choices to the top 5, what you’ll need to have to hand for your UCAS application and most importantly how to write an incredible personal statement. I’ve helped students with personal statements for over 10 years with many going off to top universities such as Oxford, Cambridge and Harvard. By the end of this session each student will have started their first draft of their personal statement and know exactly what they need to write for the remaining paragraphs.
*Note that this session also comes with a BONUS! Any student booked onto this class will be able to send me their personal statement to review and I’ll provide feedback on how to make it even better!
