Time+Management

__Time Management __ Many students struggle to submit tasks on time due to underdeveloped time management skills. The senior school student planner includes a weekly time planning sheet which can be used to plan for effective time management. (copies enclosed) As a mentor assisting your student to plan their time for the week ahead can have a big impact on their achievement levels. When completing the weekly planner it is important to focus on the need for balance.  //To be effective the planner needs to be a **complete record** of what needs to be done: // Homework Study Excursions Sport games and training Work commitments Family commitments Rest and relaxation Extracurricular commitments //Allow time for unforeseen emergencies // Consider the use of colour codes or symbols when working with the planner to help distinguish between different activities and allow the balance between activities to be easily seen.
