Our exam preparation courses combine practice of effective exam technique
with structured follow-up revision programmes to support students as they
prepare to tackle Linear A Level exams.
Each course is designed to reinforce and build on the completed teaching for the featured unit. The exam
techniques covered will enable students to demonstrate the skills required by examiners. However, these
need to be practiced in order for them to be successful in the exam hall.
