Why do teachers call them ‘study periods’ and students call them ‘frees’?
Just one of the questions that Year 12 were asked as part of a study skills workshop delivered by The Life Skills Company on 8 October. The 2 hour workshop addressed key study skills such as speed and skim reading, condensing text and time management. Later in the day, Year 13 all took part in an interactive workshop entitled ‘Qualifications are Not Enough’. They spent time considering what universities and employers are looking for, and had the opportunity to hone their interview skills. The excellent input on body language and common interview questions means that they will be well prepared for the individual interviews that will be provided for them as part for their tutorial programme after the half term break.
