Study Skills includes all of the aspects of our Pre IB programme that made it so beneficial, but it will focus on broader, advanced-level study skills that will be vital for students entering their final years of high school and going on to University. It teaches advanced level skills that will give students the vital tools they need for success in high school and in transitioning to university.

What Students learn
 

Our bespoke programme has been developed to meet the needs of students going into their final, challenging years of high school and to equip them with the vital skills they will need going on to university.

Students will learn a variety of tactics that will help them use their time more effectively, which covers everything from goal setting, critical thinking and time management, to developing study plans, research skills and essay structuring. We will also give students the tools they need to deliver effective presentations as well as develop confidence for public speaking.

We also work with students to manage exam and academic stress and teach them coping techniques for dealing with the increased workload that they may be facing at this stage of their high school career. The tutorial-style classes are interactive and students will be given time to actively practise and develop all of the skills they are taught on a daily basis.

The skills students gain from this course will not only help them prepare for their final years of high school but will be essential as they move on to university study. 

*Students aged 15 and over can also sign up to our University Admissions Workshop. This is offered at all 3 campuses and gives information about the university admissions process.
