O.ne of the things that people worry about most when moving to secondary school is the tests and exams that they will have to do. They feel scared, and worry they will do badly in them and let themselves down.
You will do tests in some classes to show your teacher how much you have learned. The teacher can then use this information to see if there is anything they need to go over again. At Christmas and Summer, you will do exams for some subjects.
All we ask for exams and tests is that you put the work into revising and do your best. Not everyone can be good at every subject, and there might be some that you don't do as well in as others. As long as you have put in your best effort, you should be proud of yourself.
If you haven't done well in a test or exam, you might feel disappointed or upset. If this happens, you should speak to your teacher (or the classroom assistant if there is one with your class). They might be able to go through some of the information with you and explain where you went wrong so that you feel more confident next time! They might also be able to give you some guidelines on how best to study, because we know that some people find this difficult. Remember, we are here to help!
