Work for students who are at home
The following is a list of work students can be doing:
- Use the subject knowledge organisers – self test (bring in evidence of self-testing when back in school)
- Reading (including fiction) – note the pages down in your planner
- Use educational websites such as BBC bitesize and Seneca learning to work through the topics that have been covered in lessons
- Use the google classroom to keep up to date with any homework set by your teachers
Year 11 and 13 students
- In addition to this advice, revision should be the key focus of this period for exam-based subjects
- Keep in regular email contact with teachers regarding feedback and advice
- Practise past papers
- Look at Examiner’s Reports from previous exams (these can be found on Exam Board websites)
Year 12 Post 16 students may also consider:
- Organise folders and review notes from the year so far
- Look at examples of AS past papers – specimens should be available on Exam Board websites
- Continue to ‘read around’ your subject. Look for articles or reports about aspects of your study.
- Research your P18 options (University, apprenticeships, employment.) The UCAS website is a good source, as is the Careers sections on our school’s website.
