Scared of moving up

Revise if you think you need to - can't hurt, can it? At least check back over what you've worked on, make sure you're OK with what you might be tested on.

Talk to your teachers, ask how you're getting on. They're just normal people, if you ask them they should give you some good pointers. You could always ask your form tutor, or whatever they're called these days - they might be able to talk to your other teachers and give you a summary of your progress.

Most important thing - enjoy it

have fun, and the stuff will stick in your noggin.

Or

Yr 7: Pancake
Yr 8: Pancake
Yr 9: Pancake
Yr 10: Half of GCSE's (hard due to having to learn Y7,8,9 in two years while learning extra modules)
Yr 11: Other Half of GCSE's (hard due to having to learn Y7,8,9 in two years while learning extra modules)

Yr 7: Work
Yr 8: Work
Yr 9: Work
Yr 10: Half of GCSE's (easy due to what was learned in Y7,8,9)
Yr 11: Other Half of GCSE's (easy due to what was learned in Y7,8,9)

Learning in year 7-9? To be honest, I don't think anything you learn in 7 or 8 can help at all. A bit of the science stuff we learnt in year 9 helped me in year 10. Otherwise, it wasn't a help.

Year 7 - 11 = easy transition between each year

It's Year 12 -13 that you'll need to start properly working

There is no years 12 and 13. It's 6th Form

I remember being in year 12 and 13 very clearly.

Yes it is sixth form, but now there are AS and A2 levels, defining the years is necessary.
