Study skills
A major part of the Yeats College curriculum is centred on study skills. A comprehension of the material does not always translate to examination performance if the student is unable to structure and regulate their revision effectively.
Study skills provided include:
- Stress management
- Concentration and listening skills
- Revision and memory aids
- Effective note-taking
- Motivation
- Grade targets
Our study skills seminars involve developing the techniques and attitude necessary to cope with the rigorous workload of the Leaving Certificate exams.
Revision & assessment
At Yeats College, we have an integrated teaching model whereby teachers follow a common, structured revision schedule which aids students’ retention and reinforcement of key concepts.
We provide:
- Regular assessment tests
- Revision worksheets
- Detailed revision schedules
- Follow-up action
Continual assessment is a major feature of life at Yeats College. Under continual assessment, students take part in:
- Mock Leaving Certificate examinations in November, Christmas and February
- Monthly assessments in every subject
The results of all academic assessments are available to parents through our student portal VSware; parent-teacher meetings are also held following major examinations.
