English

English Literature Revision:

GCSE Pod – This app includes short and informative videos on all the sections of the exam paper (A Christmas Carol, Power & Conflict Poetry, Macbeth and Unseen Poetry). These are great for making notes, flash cards or revision posters.

Tassomai – Quiz yourself with this amazing app. At the moment, this only covers content for Macbeth and A Christmas Carol but it’s a great way of revising little and often.

Mr Bruff – A huge range of videos on content, exam skills and model responses. Mr Bruff is a one stop shop for everything Lit revision!

Revision guides are still a great way to revise and have a wealth of helpful information in one place. Use these to make flash cards, posters, Cornell notes or any other revision resource. TWS would recommend York Notes 9-1 for the relevant texts.

English Language Revision:

GCSE Pod – This app includes short and informative videos on all the sections of the exam paper - Reading, Writing and SPAG. These are great for making notes, flash cards or revision posters.

Mr Salles English – Like Mr Bruff, this YouTube teacher has amazing tips on all aspects of the Language exam papers. You will get top tips, example responses and whole paper walk-throughs.

Practise makes perfect – The very best thing you can do for English Language is to practise. This could be in the form of reading (fiction or non-fiction) and asking yourself questions about the text and the writer’s use of language. Another great activity is to ask your teacher for a Q5 task and to practise planning and completing it in timed conditions.

Maths

The main source of revision for GCSE Mathematics is MathsWatch, which is a video supported site. Here students can watch quality one minute or longer videos on chosen mini topics. The one minute videos are very useful in the weeks prior to their maths exams.

Maths Genie is a site where students can also access specific mini topic support, but also access GCSE past papers for both Foundation and Higher level. We would also recommend CGP revision guides and workbooks for Maths.

The exam board for Maths is OCR.
