Year 10 Study Conference

A full-day inbound event designed to support the attainment of Year 10 students in the core subjects of English, Maths and Science.

About the event

The Year 10 Study Conference is a full-day inbound activity designed to support the English, Maths and Science attainment of Year 10 students from our target WP schools currently on the 3-4 / 4-5 grade boundary.

Through a series of subject-specific sessions, your students will have the opportunity to explore how their current learning in English, Maths and Science could be used to support their future education and careers. 

During our tried-and-tested study skills session, they will then explore the habits of successful students, paying specific focus to growth mindset, active learning, and effective target setting.

After participating in the Year 10 Study Conference, students will:

  • Understand the difference between active and passive learning
  • Have a working knowledge of a range of active learning techniques that can be used to support their academic performance across all subjects at GCSE
  • Demonstrate an understanding of how active learning techniques can be utilised in the core subjects of Maths, English and Science, facilitated through subject workshops
  • Feel empowered to make decisions about their academic activities at GCSE and beyond
  • Recognise how to set and accomplish aspirational - yet achievable - targets. 

Your students will also have the opportunity to ask students currently studying at Oxford Brookes University what university is really like.
