How to Plan Your Matric Year Term by Term

Good marks start with a plan. At Leerkring in Kimberley we see learners do well when they know what to study, when to study it and who to ask for help. Small habits matter more than long late nights. Fifty focused minutes after school beats five tired hours the night before a test.

Ask questions early, join a study group and keep your past papers close. Our tutors are happy to help you build a weekly timetable that fits school, sport and home life.

How to build strong study skills

Start with a simple timetable. Pick one subject per session, write short summaries in your own words and test yourself with past papers. Our tutors at Leerkring show learners how to do this, and our study groups keep everyone on track week after week.

Why education opens doors

Good results help with bursaries, TVET colleges, university places and first jobs. Even small wins count. A better maths mark or a finished online course gives you confidence, and confidence makes the next step easier. Talk to us at Du Toitspan Road about where to begin.

  1. I found this very helpful. The tips are clear and easy to follow, and my daughter is already using them for homework.

  2. Thank you for this article. Our son writes matric this year and these ideas helped us plan the term. Sharing it with other parents.

  3. Good advice from people who clearly know learners. The part about studying on a small budget was very useful for us in Galeshewe. Well done, Leerkring.
