Academia 19: A Level Folder Organisation
Hello my beautiful friends!
In today's blog post I am prematurely starting my Back2School series with my A Level folder organisation tips and tricks! I have so many fun Back2School blog posts planned and some good ideas were suggested by my Instagram followers too. In fact, this post was requested when I asked my followers for blog post ideas on my Instagram story.
There are so many different methods of folder organisation, so do not feel that my method is the only way. I just hope my organisation tips act as inspiration and help those transitioning into Year 12.
Currently, I use 3 folders for each subject: a day folder, Year 12 subject folder and Year 13 subject folder.
At the front of my day folder I have my timetable to ensure this is accessible (here's a sneak peak of next year's timetable, although my tutor period (Tu) slots have not yet been inputted 😉).
Behind my timetable I have a divider for each subject (Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Economics) and a spare 'Other' section, which I mainly use to store revision. At the back I have a plastic wallet attached to my ringbinder, which I usually use to store revision cards.
I empty my day folder into my subject folders every Friday evening except for homework due later on. I find I do not need to keep class notes in my folder because I have a textbook for each subject, so I use this for reference in lesson rather than notes.
All of my subject folders are organised in the same way for both Year 12 and Year 13, so I have decided to just show my Year 12 economics folder. In the front of my folder I have a plastic wallet, which stores my revision cards.
In my economics folder only, I then have this workbook, which I use for my economics homework.
Then, I have dividers splitting my folder into 5 sections. At the front I have my specification (in front of this section I have a formula sheet in my maths, further maths and physics folders). For each subject I have 2 teachers, so the second and third sections contain my classwork for each teacher (I write the teachers's initials on these sections). In the fourth section I file any revision I do throughout the year for each subject and this mainly consists of questions and past papers. The final section contains any tests I do throughout the year including mini tests and mocks.
I hope this has been useful! As I said, there are many methods for folder organisation and this is just my own method.
To those who have requested blog posts, I have planned to publish every request at some point in the near future. Due to this, until mid-September, my blog posts will be study-based (at least, this is what I've planned so far), but I have planned some mental health and 'maths stuff' blog posts to publish after this. If anyone has any further requests, feel free to comment or dm me as always.
As mentioned in my last post, I hope to reach 1000 followers on Instagram by the end of summer. I really appreciate the support I have received so far, but if anyone can give me a cheeky shoutout on their page or story, it would mean so much (every little helps)! I'd like to say a massive thank you to Studyrhi, who has been a massive supporter by giving both advice and shoutouts! 💕
Thank you to everyone for your support! Again, comment or dm me any posts you'd like to see!
