EASTER REVISION PROGRAMME

Key facts Location: Brighton

The Easter Revision Programme at Kings Brighton is designed for A-level or GCSE students who are preparing for their crucial examinations in May/June.

Our courses are carefully designed, with an integrated approach, to address three key areas:

Start dates: 26 March, 3 April 2018 Length: 1 week per course (A-level: 4 full days per week; GCSE 4 full days or 4 half days per week) Lessons: A-level: 28 hours per week GCSE: 14 hours per week per subject

Subject knowledge Kings’ experienced teachers will cover the core syllabus of all examination boards, helping students developing their understanding of both individual topics and a synoptic overview of their subject(s).

Class size range: 4 – 10 students Tuition fees: 1 A-level subject: £795 per week (4 full days) 1 GCSE subject: £395 per week (4 half days) 2 GCSE subjects: £795 per week (4 full days)

Exam strategies Through the extensive use and analysis of past papers and sample questions, students will gain a greater understanding of the structure of their examinations, improve their ability to answer examination questions to maximise the marks gained and develop effective individual strategies as to how they will approach each paper.

Revision techniques and planning Students will be given the opportunity to try a range of revision techniques and planning strategies and develop the skills needed to design their own revision tools and plans for their GCSE or A-level examinations and these can be carried forward for their future studies.
