Be considerate. When the exam has finished leave silently and quickly so as not to disturb classes. If you finish an exam during a timetabled lesson you will be expected to return to that class.
Preparation •
Continue to work hard in your lessons. Try some of the memory tips recommended by Dr Van der Spoel and break revision into manageable chunks.

If you are feeling very stressed, take control and face up to things that are worrying you. Communicate with your parents, teachers and/or friends.

Remember exams are part of learning and to learn, you need to be challenged. This sometimes means having to handle setbacks. Work hard, be confident and do your best. Support will ALWAYS be available. Speak to Mr Moore, Miss Challis, your Form Tutor or Head of House if you are worried about anything.
In Exams •
Control the exam, don’t let the exam control you.
•
Wear a watch, place it next to your exam script and keep a close eye on your exam timings.
•
If you get nervous before exams, take some moments to calm yourself at the start of the exam. Some students find it helpful to shut their eyes, and concentrate on their breathing for a few moments.
•
Manage your exam desk, develop a routine and stick to it. Try not to look around too much, but ‘be in the moment’ throughout the exam.
