The 50:50 programme - what is it?
50:50 is a way of supporting your child to structure their learning and time management effectively, by splitting their work 50:50 between the classroom and home. Your child will be expected to complete independent work for each course, each week.
This method helps them to progress through their courses and achieve their full potential by developing self-confidence, organisation and practical study techniques, in turn helping when exam and coursework time comes around. It also encourages students to stay on top of their work and prioritise deadlines more effectively.
Read all about the 50:50 programme here in our handy booklet, one for Sixth Form Campus and one for North Harbour & Highbury Campus.
