For many students the stress that can accompany exams is motivating and even necessary in order to improve exam performance. For others however, high exam stress can have a detrimental impact on exam performance by as much as one grade per subject.
I developed the Exam Pressure Solutions Programme for my MA research project which I ran with a group of highly exam anxious Year 11 GCSE students. All the students who took part showed significant reductions in exam anxiety on completion of the programme and all went on to achieve or surpass their target GCSE grades.
My research was published by the BACP, the UKs largest professional body for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, and I now run this evidenced based, 5 week programme (5x1 hour) in Jersey schools, equipping students with the skills needed to manage exam stress effectively and potentially, to improve their grades.
The new Building Exam Confidence workshop is also now available. It is an interactive, 2 hour workshop suitable for large groups teaching solution focused strategies for managing exam nerves, developing effective revision skills and increasing exam confidence.
