'Maximising Your Results' with Dr Prue Salter

Students: Are you confident that you are doing everything you need to be doing to achieve your academic potential?

Parents: Do you want to make sure that your students are on track to maximise their results in the final years of school?

Year 11 parents and students are invited to participate in this interactive session.

Parents/Carers and students should attend together to get the full value of the session.   Both students and parents need to bring a pen each (and one highlighter for the family) and the school diary.

The main areas that will be covered are:

• Making study as effective and efficient as possible.
• Organisation and time management skills.
• Improving study notes and study techniques.
• Dealing with the obstacles and problems.

Time to step up and move your study skills to the next level!
