Harness the power of sport
for exam success!

Students read through real-world sporting principles and analogies that are cleverly linked to one of five fundamental areas of exam preparation and then complete a reflective worksheet to develop the relevant study skill.

Great for use in tutor time (or as homeworks)!

5 fundamental areas of exam preparation:

1. Learning	Supports students to understand how to retain information, reflect on their learning process and get the most out of each lesson.
2. Focus	Develops students’ concentration and helps them to avoid unnecessary distractions.
3. Effort	Empowers students to make sacrifices and put the hardwork in.
4. Motivation	Taps into students’ inner driving force and maintains enthusiasm.
5. Revision	Advances students’ revision strategies, to help them get the most out of their revision.

Get the whole school involved!

What do teachers say about this resource? (8202)

The educational value of this resource is vast. The activities can be used for all levels of learner but could also easily be added to tutor time in order for students to reflect on their individuality and achievements. Through simple reflection and identifying their strengths students can plan to work on their weaknesses. I feel that this resource can be easily applied to any level of learner and any specification.

S Sheppard, Teacher & Peer Reviewer

The activities certainly reinforce learning... it can be generalised for all students who are taking exams and using the [sports] principles it describes can be extrapolated for better success in all exams the students are taking. This is a really good idea.
