On Friday 26th February and Monday 1st March Year 11 students participated in Study Skills sessions aimed at helping them to prepare for their final examinations. Presenters from 'Learning Performance' came into the Academy to lead the session in which students were taught memory skills such as Peg Words, Image Chains and Mind Maps. The sessions were very interactive and informative and the presenters were very impressed with our students. Jacob Robinson from year 11 commented 'I enjoyed the session today even though it was a whole day, I managed to stay focused. I had fun and learnt a lot of valuable new things'. Devesh Mardania also commented 'It was a very interesting session. It really tested your mind and was very challenging'. It is now up to the Year 11 students to put their new skills into practice while preparing for their exams! Ms Hill
