Y11 REVISION SUPPORT

MATHS

At our school, we are dedicated to providing Year 11 students with the resources and support they need to excel in
their Mathematics exams. Here are some of the key initiatives we have implemented to help our students study effectively:

 

Weekly TikTok Live Revision Sessions:

Every Thursday, we host a TikTok Live session featuring TikTok star and mathematician Hannah Kettle (@hannahkettlemaths). During these sessions, Hannah goes through exam papers live, offering valuable insights and tips. The sessions are held from 7:00 - 7:45 pm for Foundation level and from 7:45 - 8:30 pm for Higher level. This interactive format aims to make revision more engaging and accessible
for our students.

 

YouTube Tutorials and QR Codes:

To further support our students, each exam paper features a QR code on the front page. By scanning this code, students are
directed to a YouTube tutorial that provides comprehensive guidance and solutions for all the questions. Additionally, the
topics covered in each question are listed on the front page, allowing students to focus their revision on specific areas.

 

Printed Copies for Homework:

To supplement their daily homework, each student receives a printed copy of each exam paper every week. This ensures they have
all the necessary materials to follow along with the live sessions and tutorials.

 

Pinpoint Learning:

After each assessment, students receive a personalized question-level analysis to help them identify their strengths and areas for development, ensuring optimal progress. Following reteach sessions where teachers address any misconceptions, students are
provided with targeted exam questions to further develop their understanding and skills.

 

Maths Watch:

Through Maths Watch, students have access to video walkthroughs of Maths topics and exam question practice. They can log in
using their unique credentials and benefit from this valuable resource.

Homework:

Daily Maths homework from their class teacher ensures consistent practice and reinforcement of concepts learned in class.

 

Revision Guides:

Each student is given a Revision Workbook on Parent's evening, providing them with structured materials to aid their revision.

 

Our comprehensive approach is designed to support Year 11 students in every aspect of their Maths studies, helping them achieve their full potential. If you have any questions or need further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

 

We hope these initiatives make a positive impact on our student's learning journey and contribute to their success in the upcoming exams.
