Year 7 and 8 children attended our revision skills day run by Positively Mad. The children learnt how to improve their recall using fun techniques like mind maps as well as a range of effective study skills to help them retain information more effectively and practical advice on exam preparation.
After the Super Speed Study Skills workshop, one of our Year 7 pupils created this excellent mind map to summarise her history content on Napoleon.
Barbara Langford, Director of Studies, said: "She was so enthusiastic about the Positively Mad talk. I was so proud of her for creating this mind map afterwards."
Our parents also got a chance to brush up on their revision techniques. "It was amazing", said one parent, "to see how after just an hour we were able to remember a long list of events just by associating them with a phrase or place in the room".
