Exam Stress Help!
Practical Advice and Support
Exam times for our young people (and parents/guardians!) may make them feel under pressure, with this in mind we have collated links to the following web-sites which may help you support your young person and provide practical advice, we would especially recommend getting your young person to read the advice on the 'Student Minds' web-link.
Study Support
As the second term comes to an end and winter break approaches, many of you will start preparing for your upcoming exams, either during the SQA prelim exams diet and/or during your SQA Exam study leave at the end of April. To help you structure your study sessions, we have provided timetable templates on this web page for each event. Each week of the SQA exam period is on a separate tab at the bottom, and you can easily print it for your wall or keep it in a folder or poly pocket. Creating a study timetable has various benefits, including helping you organise yourself, reducing stress, promoting focus and discipline, and giving you a sense of accomplishment when you begin. If you decide to use these templates, feel free to adjust them to fit your needs, but make sure to follow them accordingly.
GOOD LUCK !!!
Prelim Exams!
Click the green link button to download the Excel document to create your customisable study timetable for this year's SQA exams.
Adapt it to suit yourself, but if you do use this or something similar, use the study timetable as follows:
- Go through each tab, greying out and typing in the days when you are sitting examinations.
- Grey / Blackout times when you have work, family arrangements, football training, athletics etc or simply a planned day, morning or afternoon off. If you are good with MS Excel you can insert more or less columns if you wish for more or less slots.
- Adjust the times at he top to suit your study patterns and times and makes sure they are realistic.
- Start populating your timetable with subjects and whether you add more detail like specific past papers or topics you wish to revise within a subject is entirely up to you. Colour coordinate your subjects Eg (Colour All Chemistry Study Blue etc)
- When planning your weeks, ensure you focus and do more slots more on the earlier and upcoming exams. Ensure you have a good spread of your subjects. Your study time doesn't have to be the same in each subject and is dependent also on your strengths an weaknesses. Whatever works for you.
- Every block in May should be filled in with Something whether it be a subject, a break, day off or other personal activities.
- Print each week off and make sure it is highly visible.
- Do try hard and stick to it, it will be hard at times but be STRICT with yourself.

- Find an area in your house where you can work quietly and have everything around you which you will need for each session.
- Put your phone on silent and put it away from easy reach unti you have a break.
- It is good practice during study leave to set your alarm, get up, washed and dressed as normal and get into a purposeful routine.
- Although you may not have school the following day, avoid the temptation of staying up late as it will impact on your alertness the following day.
- Do try hard and stick to it, it will be hard at times but be STRICT with yourself.
