Notice your thoughts

Pay attention to your inner voice today.
If you catch negative thought, pause and question them.

Are they facts – or just stress talking?

Seek out support. Finding it a struggle to make or follow a revision timetable. The Learning Enhancement Team have a host of resources you might find helpful including podcasts and template timetables.

Thank you to everyone who came along to today’s Final Year Send-Off & Afternoon Tea in Earlham Hall.

It was lovely to see students taking the time to mark the end of the year, catch up with friends, and wish our finalists well.

We hope those who attended enjoyed the afternoon tea, relaxed atmosphere, and games.

Best wishes to all our finalists as they take their next steps.

Welcome to day 4 of our wellbeing and exam preparation mini-series.

Getting prepared for assessments is just as important as your assessments themselves.
Do you know what to expect? Have you taken the time to check you understand your exam timetable and know what times your assessments will be released and what time the submission point closes. Have you thought about the technology you will use and where you will work best?

Now is the time to ask questions. Contact Student Information Zone or your Module Organiser if needed.

Welcome to day 3 of our wellbeing and exam preparation mini-series. Every weekday for the next 2 weeks we will send something to consider whilst you are studying.

Focus on one thing
Today, try single-tasking.
Pick one topic and give it your full attention for a short burst. When your mind wanders, gently bring it back.

Welcome to day 2 of our wellbeing and exam preparation mini-series.

Today’s task - Set your intention

Take 5 minutes today to pause and breathe.

Write down 2-3 realistic goals for your revision, remember to keep them achievable.

What’s key is building momentum, not perfection.
