Back to school: How to make the new school year count

As the summer comes to a close and thoughts turn to the new school year, we've created the ultimate guide to preparing for hitting the ground running in the 2026/27 school year.

So, let's lock in and get this show on the road..

Before jumping into the new school year, it's worth taking a moment to look back on the previous year of learning that's already been and gone.

Spending a little bit of time reading back over notes from last year will help reinforce the knowledge that's already been picked up, while also getting the brain back into gear.

If you're signed up to MyEdSpace Summer Math Courses, now is an ideal time to re-attempt some of the homeworks from the last few lessons, and re-watch any lessons or video walkthroughs you're not confident with.

While we're in the thick of summer, those deadlines coming this fall and winter can feel far off, but they'll be here before you know it.

Now is the ideal time to start thinking about a study plan to help get prepared.

When plotting your path to academic success, it's helpful to start by listing all the subjects you'll need to cover, and breaking them down into individual topics. For example, if you're already studying on MyEdSpace, you could simply follow the monthly modules plan in the main course starting on August 17th.

Next, think about how well you already understand each area, and use this to prioritize where and when to focus. While it makes sense to focus on those topics you're less confident on, don't forget to dedicate some time to revisiting areas you know well.

As you get closer to the exams, you'll find these priorities will shift so don't be afraid to update your plan as your knowledge and understanding grows.

If you want to give yourself the best possible chance of exceeding expectations in the new school year, the data shows that studying with MyEdSpace doubles - or even triples - your chances of achieving top grades.

For example last year,

• Robert
  "What I love with my tutoring with Eddie is that my geometry grade was a 60%, now it's at a 80%-90%. I really enjoy being with MES"
• Eun Jun
  "Classes are detailed and easy to understand! My daughter learns ahead of her Algebra class, so the next lessons are easier. If you want to be ahead of your child's curriculum at school, do this program."
• Midi
  "This whole company is one of the best experiences that I have ever had, one of the best after-school websites I have ever tried. I guarantee that it will help your child actually understand what they are learning, so basically, learning with fun Mr. Eddie is simply just a magician with his brain."
• Ash
  "I do MyEdSpace and it's so fun. They make it really interactive and not boring at all. And I'm way ahead of my grade and doing algebra like no other 7th grader. Thanks to MyEdSpace."
• Neerja
  "He is the best teacher ever for math I ever met. Usually, I struggle with difficult or challenging topics but he made it easier, gave tips and advices on how to solve problems and understand them instead of just memorizing it. 100% recommended."
