The focus of revision programmes at Newbury Study Hall is almost exclusively on knowledge & ability rather than exam technique. Students must know the subject content first to be able to apply it in their exam. Strong subject knowledge is the main predictor of exam success, only then complemented by ‘exam skills’.

Holiday revision programmes are tutored as subject-specific masterclasses. Students are actively engaged throughout, not sitting passively as they might in a lecture, when (re)reading a study guide or watching a revision video.

In August, headstart programmes prepare students for the coming term.
