tips and strategies for exam success

"This practical skills guide helps young people with specific learning differences (SpLDs) including dyslexia, DCD/dyspraxia and ADHD study for their exams.

It not only shows students how to develop a positive success attitude towards study and exams, but also aims to equip them with powerful strategies and techniques for learning and remembering.
