Boost Motivation

When you have broken your revision down into manageable chunks, it’s easier to motivate yourself to attempt one small piece of the puzzle at a time. Allow yourself to focus on one task, one piece of revision or one topic at a time and acknowledge every small win along the way. Celebrating your achievements will also act as a motivation booster to keep you fighting for your grades right up until the summer.

Manage your Time and Workload

Rather than revising blindly and not optimising your study time your revision timetable gives you the opportunity to review your learning progress. This process should highlight areas you need to dedicate more time to which may be your least favourite subjects.Use your timetable to evaluate your ability in each GCSE subject and outline your revision based on this assessment. Guiding your revision with a well thought-out plan will result in better managed time. You won’t be delving into your revision without predefined ideas of what you want to get done at every stage in the process.Getting down to it and pushing yourself to focus when studying means that there are added benefits to using a study plan such as improving your efficiency and productivity
