Teaching and LearningBuilding on GCSE
Independent learning is the key: work outside lessons!
Smaller class sizesDialogue with teachers
![Page 10: Welcome to Year 12](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062813/568166a7550346895dda988b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
GCSE = ‘learn what teacher has given you’A level = ‘research and discuss it’
Top grades require: autonomy & independence
2—3 hours outside of lessons per day.More responsibility for own learning
Independent learning!
