As in previous years, we are running an exam diet for pupils in S3, this year from Tues 23rd April until Fri 10th May. We introduced this some years ago as part of our attainment-raising strategies and we believe it has contributed to the subsequent improvement in attainment.
It allows pupils (and parents) an opportunity to see whether they are on track with the learning in each subject area and also gives an early experience of the type of exam situation they will face in the prelims and the final SQA exams in S4.
Some exams will be held in the Games Hall to give a better taste of the ‘SQA experience’ but most will be held in classrooms during one of their subject periods.
