Tips for Language & Literature
Period 6 Support
One of the strategies to be used to support students are after-school 'Period 6' sessions. The first term will focus mainly on the core subjects English, Maths and Science. All students are encouraged to attend. The below table sets out the subjects and times of the sessions. We believe that this approach will accelerate learning, enabling teachers to focus on revisiting and reinforcing key learning to ensure that students are well prepared for their examinations. Your class teacher will communicate in more detail about the P6 sessions.

How to Study Effectively
Recommended Revision Resources
Seneca Learning
Seneca Learning is an exceptional online learning resource which will really help you to focus on key skills and information required for success in your final examinations. Many of your teachers may have already used this with you. The more resources that you can access, the better. Please make sure you complete the exercises properly, reading through the relevant information before answering questions.
BBC Bitesize
This website provides really effective revision notes and videos and is well-worth using. There are also some helpful quizzes and mini-assessments for you to test your recall. Make sure you choose the correct exam board for your subject.
Stream
Many of your teachers have created video resources to support your learning. While the resources above are brilliant, there's nothing better than having your teacher work with you. You can access these 'homemade' resources in Stream, which is part of Office 365.
