GCSE Maths: 100 days
There are just 100 days to go until the first GCSE Maths exam this year – but there’s no need to panic.
Whatever stage your studies are at, regular practice will help sharpen your skills ready for the big day.
Diagnostic questions online stream
In order to help you prepare, http://www.diagnosticquestions.com have set up an online question stream, giving you access to a couple of multiple choice questions each and every day, in order to prepare fort your exams. They will give you continuous practice with maths skills in order to keep them sharp in preparation for your exams.
To access the stream, you will need to download the Diagnostic Questions mobile app, and register with it:
Once you have registered, you will need to input a “class code”. The class code for Mallard Days Educational Services (Higher tier) is:
SC-DA2FSKD1FQT7
If you’ve already registered, simply open the app, and the first question will appear in front of you!
Revision workshops
As in previous years, there’s not long left to book your place at our highly recommended Revision Workshops – early bird booking closes on Saturday, 3 March, so make sure that you have signed up by then to take advantage of the lowest possible prices. For more information about the workshops, visit the news announcement, and to book visit our booking page.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
Practical Physics and Summer Revision sessions 2018
As in previous years, the start of January means that our Summer Revision sessions for this year are now open for booking.
Practical Skills in Physics
For the first time this year, we’re also offering a session in January on Practical Skills in Physics, which we hope you will find useful.
The practical physics revision session is designed for students taking higher tier GCSE and A-level Physics, and will take place at 9am on 21st January. To book your place, and to download the preparatory material for this session, head directly to the practical physics booking page.
Summer 2018 sessions
Booking for all of the summer revision sessions can be found on the main revision session booking page.
As in previous years, all our sessions feature an “early bird” discount of £10 if booked before Saturday 3 March, and £5 if booked before Saturday 14 April, so it’s in your interest to book early.
Continued partnership
We will be once again continuing our room booking partnership with Bowburn Community Association, who will be hosting all of our revision sessions. The centre is easily accessible by car (with a large free car park) or bus (the regular X12 Newcastle – Middlesbrough bus stops directly outside).
So, what sessions are available?
This year, we are focusing sessions on our core topic areas of Maths and Physics, with sessions two days and four days before the majority of papers.
As in previous years, the A-level Maths exam timetable is not helpful for this, as each exam board is holding some of their exams on different days, so if you are an A-level Maths student please check extra carefully prior to booking to ensure that you are booking the most suitable session for you!
When are the sessions?
