What should I be doing this month?

JUNE

  • We hope that you are getting into the swing of exams. Remember to read your timetable carefully and plan ahead. Set your alarm in good time for those morning exams and pin the exam timetable somewhere accessible so that everyone can see it.

  • If you are late for an exam for whatever reason, don’t panic! Get in touch with the exams team asap and let them know. Make sure you are with a parent or other responsible adult who can supervise you, look after your phone and get you to your exam as quickly as possible.

  • Now is a great time to start focusing on your Personal Statement – continuing to read widely and thinking about what experiences you might plan for the summer to bolster your CV. It may be worth putting pen to paper on an initial draft.

  • Start planning the Open Days you will attend: these are a great opportunity to learn more about the right place, and course, for you. Many of these will be coming up in the next few months. You can use the Open Day cards on your Schools Portal.

  • Keep talking to your teachers about your university goals.

  • Stay organised and work hard on your chosen subjects. If your end of Year 12 Mocks have finished, congratulations! If they are ongoing, remember that they are important for your predicted grades.

  • If you are taking an online admissions test for selective UK universities. Open a Pearson Vue account now. The link is here for ESAT, TARA and TMUA. The link is here for all the Oxford University tests.

  • We hope that you are getting into the swing of (I)GCSEs. Remember to read your timetable carefully and plan ahead. Set your alarm in good time for those morning exams and pin the exam timetable somewhere accessible so that everyone can see it.

  • If you are late for an exam for whatever reason, don’t panic! Get in touch with the exams team asap and let them know. Make sure you are with a parent or other responsible adult who can supervise you, look after your phone and get you to your exam as quickly as possible.

  • Continue to explore your academic interests widely: reading books, watching documentaries and listening to podcasts are all great ways of deepening your understanding and finding out where your passions lie.

  • Start thinking about work experience, perhaps for this summer – the earlier you get this sorted, the better – it is really useful for university and beyond.
