Maximize Your Potential

Our Sixth Form presentation is suitable for both Year 12 and Year 13 students, but the content / emphasis evolves, depending on whether we are working with students at the start of Year 12, or in Year 13 as they approach their final exams.

For example, if we see them early on in Year 12, there would be an emphasis on the importance of students taking ownership of their learning, and time management, ie, utilising study periods, planning, hitting deadlines and generally being in control of their workload.  We are also keen, particularly at this stage, to encourage the students to embrace the extra-curricular activities the Sixth Form offers, and the opportunity these bring to develop their so-called 'soft' skills - communication, teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, etc, with a view to future employability.

As they progress through to their final exams in Year 13, the emphasis changes to effective revision skills and advice on exam preparation and exam technique, including video clips from high achieving students talking about their personal strategies, advice from exam markers, best use of online resources, etc.

We also want to encourage resilience, a readiness to learn from failure, and self-belief.

Prior to any session taking place, we would be keen to have a chat with the Head of Year to check whether there are any particular concerns that you would like addressed, or key messages that you would like reinforced, in order to ensure that the content is as relevant as possible.

I've used lots of different companies but they haven't really given them the strategies they need ... but we've just had two hours in the room with Maximize, and every single student at the end of the session, said, 'I'm going to change my approach.'

This is the first talk that has really resonated with me, and I feel like I can really use the advice given to help me do well in my A Levels and prepare for my future career (and also aim for higher goals I thought were unrealistic!)
