Importance of Year 12: a foundation for Year 13

Key messages in the video include:

Reduce pressure in Year 13 by keeping on top of Year 12

Create space to do more than study in Year 13 by using Year 12 to stay on top

Year 12 forms basis of predicted grades: UCAS application submitted very early in Year 13

Hard work, not GCSE performance, will shape your grades

Being organised in Year 12, no gaps in notes, makes Year 13 less stressful

Topics only covered once so learn them properly in Year 12 so you avoid doing again

Exam anxiety often comes from feeling not worked hard enough

Reduce exam anxiety by staying on top of studies and revision in Year 12
