Are you prepared for your exams? A few reminders for Y11 students
Early preparation • Display the dates of your exams. Highlight times, or whether it is am or pm. • Check that you are doing the paper your teacher has told you. • Know what you need to revise. • If you aren’t told, ask for advice on how to revise. • Attend additional revision sessions.
A few days before the exam • Continue with your revision and other preparation. • Check the exam lists so that you know exactly where you should be (and where you should queue). • Ensure that you know what equipment you need - calculator or other specialist equipment. • Ensure you know your candidate number.
The day of the exam • Eat sensibly and bring water (clear bottle, no labels) to the exam. • Bring all the equipment you need (including a spare pen and pencil) in a clear pencil case. • A black pen is required in all exams • Arrive for your exam in good time and queue sensibly(taking account of the alphabetical arrangements for seating and boys/girls). • If you have to bring your mobile phone, it must be switched off and handed in.
During the exam • Make sure that you know which sections or questions you need to answer. Information is outlined on the front of exam papers, but a member of staff will also emphasise this to you. • Remember the exam techniques and other tips your teacher has told you. • Use all the time. Don’t finish early and just sit there.
And finally • We want you to do your best but we cannot tolerate any actions or behaviour which prevents others from doing the best they can. • The school and the exam board will take very firm action against students who do not conform to expected behaviour.
