The purpose of this page is to ensure that parents have all the relevant information to support their young person prepare effectively for their exams. The information on this page should enable you to effectively communicate with your young person so that they are maximising the opportunities available to them through intervention, home learning, key information, and effective revision strategies. 

As we head towards the exam period, we understand that this can be a stressful time for your young person. Young Minds have a series of support pages aimed to help with exam stress and anxiety. Please click on the links to access advice available to help parents and carers and  young people themselves.

Ark Burlington Danes will commit to sending out text messages to all parents when there has been an update to the page. All we ask is that you engage with the new information or video and follow up with your young person at home. By working together we will ensure every student at BDA achieves the highest possible grades.
