At Allerton High School we aim to equip students with the skills to study effectively. Through lessons, assemblies and the coaching programme, we teach students about how they learn and guide them with which revision methods work best and why. A lot of stress and anxiety around exams can often stem from a feeling of being overwhelmed and not in control. Our overriding message is that knowledge is power; we believe that learning how to study properly and having the tools to do so is empowering for our students and helps revision & exams seem less daunting!
Leaders know their school well. They work relentlessly to make their school even better. They are highly effective in improving standards of provision.
