Ahead of exams, parents are advised to teach their children 14 key "command words" to improve their understanding and exam performance.
The Easter break is here and, for many students, it's crunch time to revise ahead of exams. Some teachers have suggested pupils need to spend up to seven hours a day practising for upcoming tests.

Parents and carers can help even without specific subject knowledge.
