Prelim Christmas Revision School
Looking for extra help before your January Prelim exams?
We offer Support for National 5, Higher and Advanced higher
Our Prelim Christmas revision courses are a fantastic way of getting much needed studying done over the festive period.
For good results in prelim exams, students must revise during the Christmas break. Despite their best intentions, it can be difficult for students to possess the will power and discipline to work effectively during the holidays.
An intensive Christmas revision course led by a subject specialist working with small groups of students providing structure, revision materials, exam practice and support, can make a major difference to their prelim exam results.
Our SQA courses will deliver 6 hours of revision over a three day period.
We cover the following subjects English, Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Physics.

I chose to do this to prepare for my prelims. We went through past papers per topic, which helped me understand how the questions work and how many marks are given. I found it incredibly helpful.

I joined up to improve and reinforce my knowledge of Human Biology for my prelim. We were asked about what we struggled with and we went over those topics in lots of detail. I felt much better equipped for the exam from doing this.
