GCSE Revision - how much are your dc doing?

What the title says really - how much if any revision are your dc doing at the moment or what is their plan.
Dc1 insists no one is doing anything yet, but not sure I believe him! He is fairly bright but not the sort that can get away with not doing any.

DD has created the most beautiful revision planner which she also laminated and has placed proudly on our fridge.

I think it took her longer to design the damn thing than she has spent actually revising Hmm

Thankfully her school are making them do revision catch ups for their weaker subjects in school time.

Ds1 worked really hard for the mocks after Christmas. Has done about half an hour a day since, nothing last week through the holidays but is planning on hitting books/past papers/ anything else that's useful from today. He has bee going to lunchtime classes on subjects he feels he needs more support with.

DS has been doing past papers (Maths & Sciences) since October half term and bits of revision most days as he always seems to have a test to revise for.

He has mocks this week so this Feb half term has been mostly spent on revision and more past papers.

The school runs revision classes so he goes to the ones he feels he needs to.

My DS is doing some everyday. He needs to get good marks to stay at his schools sixth form.
He is currently re reading his English Lit books.
he still has a Mock exam to do this week so is revising maths also.
