Lift Ryde

Year 11 Revision

Year 11 is a big year. With GCSE exams and revision, decisions to be made about next steps, and moving on to new 6th forms, colleges, and training providers, it is easy to become overwhelmed. At Lift Ryde, we prepare our Year 11 students with all of the information they will need to lead successful and fulfilled lives. On this page, Year 11 students, parents and carers will find some useful tips on how to make the most of this vital year. From study tips and revision timetables, to stress management and holiday and evening booster sessions, we hope that the information shared below helps our Year 11s to shine in their final year at Lift Ryde. We encourage families to also look over this information to help support their children in feeling prepared, confident, and calm in the run-up to exams.

Exam Preparation

Using PiXL parent pamphlets is a strategy designed to help students develop exam related stamina and resilience in the period before they take their exams. Research shows that many students face mental health issues and struggle to deal with pressure, expectations and the feelings of overwhelm.

Students will be sitting exams for a longer period which will be harder. Students need to understand how to look after themselves, both physically and mentally, by developing healthy habits, so they are in the best possible state to perform.
