How to stay motivated

  • Believe that you’ve done all the work necessary to be able to pass. Anything else is a bonus.
  • Treating your predicted GCSE grades as your upper target only.  There’s many reasons why GCSE students will not achieve their target GCSE grades 2022.
  • Don’t make your GCSE revision sessions too arduous.
  • Try as much as you possibly can to make your GCSE revision ‘fresh’ – rather than a daily chore.
  • Regularly reward yourself.
  • Employ short diversions and apply different learning methods that will make the work less monotonous and help it all sink in.

Our best advice is to ‘Keep calm and Carry On’

If your child is worried about taking their exam, we advise reassuring them they will be fine and just to do their best. Do not leave any anxiety issues, such as those described above, to get better on their own without any invention…since it can lead to a situation in which your child can’t focus at all on their practice.

What is Biology GCSE?

GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) is an academically / subject based qualification. Students in England and Wales study towards this over a 2 year period, Year 10 and 11. The idea of GCSEs is to give you a broad general knowledge, from where you can then become specialised in your A-levels.

When is Biology GCSE?

Yearly GCSE exams take place between May and June.

What happens to my GCSE Biology results?

Your GCSE subject choices and subsequently the results you get can affect the following:

  • the sixth form you go to
  • the qualifications you take next
  • your eligibility for a university course
  • which university you can apply to
  • your career prospects

What do GCSE number grades mean?

  • The highest grade awarded is GCSE grade 9.
  • With the lowest being GCSE grade 1.
  • The top GCSE grades 9, 8 and 7 are equivalent to the old fashioned GCSE grade A* and GCSE grade A.
