Waldegrave School End of Spring Magazine 2023

A-LEVEL GEOGRAPHY REVISION TRIP

At the end of March, 37 enthusiastic Year 13 Geographers made their way to a rather unusual venue for a typical Wednesday morning. Students were spending the day at Vue cinema in White City’s Westfield in West London, where they would enjoy a revision day led by Tutor2U, aptly titled the ‘Grade Booster Workshop.’ The day began with our engaging course leads, Gem and Mr Perez, who began with a discussion on how to best tackle the 4 marker questions. Students learnt new acronyms and played quizlets throughout, where the pace and activity was so upbeat, they almost forgot they were learning! The day moved on to analyse techniques for 20 mark and 9 mark questions before a lunch break. Students relished the opportunity to get lost in the huge food court for an hour, overwhelmed by over 40 outlets to get lunch from. After an energy charge up, the final hour of the day focused on 6 markers and how they may present themselves in exams. At this stage the competition between schools really ramped up and we were so proud to see so many Waldegrave students win the branded ‘beanies’ for their participation. A huge well done to all who were involved in the day, and for doing yourselves proud in speaking out in a busy auditorium. We hope the day was of great use to you ahead of exams in May!
