October Half Term Revision Hub
Welcome to your October Half Term Revision Hub! This page is packed with useful links and resources to help you stay on top of your studies while enjoying a well-deserved break. As you have your PPEs when we return to school, revising during the half term will make a big difference. The key is to work smart, not just hard.
Top Tips for Effective Revision:
Test Yourself Regularly
Use flashcards, quizzes, or past papers to check what you really know. Active recall is one of the most powerful ways to strengthen memory.
Transform the Information
Don’t just copy notes- rewrite them in your own words, create mind maps or teach the topic to someone else. This helps you understand and retain the material better.
Revisit and Review
Come back to topics after a few days to see how much you remember. Spaced repetition helps move information into your long-term memory.
Set Goals and Take Breaks
Plan short, focused sessions with clear goals. Then reward yourself with a break—your brain needs rest to absorb what you've learned.
