Use the grid below to plan your week and show it to your parents/carers. Be sensible, you don’t have to fill every box. Shade in or mark off any times you can’t study due to regular events – any sporting activities or clubs, favourite television programmes etc. Remember 45 minutes revising 15 minutes break!
Try not to work too late in the evening. Try to get 8 hours sleep per night as a minimum.
