After your exam

 

Don’t keep re-living the exam once it’s over. Comparing answers on social media, or with your friends won’t help in any way. You’ve done your best and can’t change anything now.

 

It might be tempting to dive straight back into your revision notes for the next exam, but it’s important to give your brain a break. Reward yourself by doing something non-exam related. Why not grab lunch with a friend? Have a kickabout in the park? Or listen to your favourite playlist?

 

Think before you post!

 

There is no doubt that social media can be a great tool to help you revise and get prepared for your exams – but please stay within the rules. 

 

  • Be responsible – take extra care when discussing exams and assessments on social media, if you’re in any doubt about what you can discuss or share - always check with your teacher. 
  • Be alert – if you come across assessment related material on social media, you must inform your teacher. The matter will then be reported and investigated. 
  • Be aware – make sure you know what constitutes malpractice and take the time to get to know the rules. Read this guide for ‘Using social media and examinations’.
