Study Tips for Exam Season
Supporting Study Success: Small Habits, Big Impact
As assignment deadlines and exams approach, it is important to take time to assist your student to build effective study habits. Consistent support at home can make a meaningful difference in a student’s learning journey. Here are five simple ways you can support at home:
🗓️ Make a Study Plan: Break revision into small, regular sessions and display the plan in a public place for all to see and discuss.
🔁 Build a Routine: Where possible, encourage study at the same time and place each day. Cue the start and finish of study sessions with alarms.
✅ Celebrate Progress: Acknowledge effort and consistency, not just outcomes.
🍎 Make It Pleasant: Pair study time with something enjoyable—like a favourite snack or calm music.
✏️ Be Resource Ready: Ensure your student has the required stationery for each exam (including a charged laptop where relevant).
Good luck to all those undertaking exams over the next few weeks!
