SUPPORTING SUCCESS – SOME ADVICE FOR PARENTS:

  • Encourage them to take a note of websites and books they read in preparation for their exams – in some subjects, they need to include references to avoid plagiarism  
  • Encourage them to use the SQA Website (especially the candidate guides)
  • Talk to them about the texts and topics they study in class.  Ask to see their work and give them constructive feedback
  • Help them to devise a Study Timetable and make sure that they stick to it.  If they’ve already devised one with their teacher, encourage them to stick to that
  • Encourage them to clear their room of any distractions: phones, games consoles and TVs
  • Liaise regularly with staff at Skye House so that we learn as much as we can about your child and, therefore, support him/her as effectively as possible
  • Continue supporting your child in this way upon their discharge from hospital

     

Your support is very much appreciated.
