The Senior Phase of school is all about qualifications and getting the best results you can. For many students, this means doing well in exams.

Teachers in Eyemouth High School work with students to help them achieve their best. However, there are important things that students can do for themselves, regardless of which subject they are studying. The students who get the best results are the ones who go above and beyond minimum expectations, who make the best use of the time available to them in school, and who work hard at home.

Time is precious and no one wants to be wasting it. There are certain sorts of study activity that can really help students do well, but there are also certain sorts of study activity which won’t do much good (but which some students might think that they will).

We have produced a pack, Getting The Best Results You Can, which has been designed to direct you to these things that are the most useful for you to be spending your time on, so that you can get the best results you can. It is set-out in eight sections:

1. SQA Resources
2. BBC Bitesize website
3. Scholar website
4. BrightRed website
5. Things that you can do in school
6. Things that you can do at home
7. Things that won’t really help you (but which you might think will).
8. Revision Checklist

We hope you find it useful.
