We tell pupils to study, but have we actually taught them how to study??
Today I finished off my ‘How to study: a simple guide on how to study smarter not harder’ PowerPoint. Hopefully will help senior pupils learn how to study effectively ✨

My cartoon for the @GuardianBooks autumn reading special.
ALT A beautiful, smiling pile of new books labelled "New Books for Autumn" innocently attracts the attentions of a young man. Beside him, his pile of books (labelled "Unfinished Summer Reading") notices this and scowls at him. The image is a cartoon pastiche of the ‘distracted boyfriend’ meme.
