ACHIEVE Information Session for Parents
ACHIEVE is an online learning platform that helps senior phase students at Penicuik High School prepare for National 5 and Higher SQA exams.
We are offering parents and carers an opportunity to learn about how ACHIEVE can help students to:
  • Increase skills and confidence when sitting national qualifications
  • Reinforce knowledge and understanding of key course concepts
  • Identify strengths and weaknesses for each course using a self-evaluation toolkit
  • Test subject knowledge using interactive assessments that provide instant feedback
  • Develop exam technique by trying SQA past paper questions and solutions
This 30-minute information session (online via MS Teams) provides parents/carers with an understanding of how ACHIEVE can help raise the attainment of students in S4-6.
ACHIEVE can be accessed both in school and at home and is free to all Penicuik students.
