We were delighted to welcome back The Life Skills Company to run our Year 11 Focus Day on Thursday 17th October. Following on from Portsmouth College's pupil and parent study skills evening, the day was all about developing memory skills. The current GCSE exams are larger and more demanding than in the past and so we look to support this challenge with brain gym training about the latest techniques of memory development. All the Year 11 pupils had a chance to practice the techniques that would extend their memory capacity and working smarter. The pupils rose to the challenge wonderfully well and found the sessions helpful.
