How much revision do your year 10 dc do during holidays/school days?

Green Remind me, what type of school is it your DC go to? I think that level of expectation would be totally unrealistic for 80%+ (or even 95%+) of teens.

Nothing. Unless he has a test coming up.
Assessments were the fortnight before half term.

It may well be on the higher end of the spectrum but that probably says more about the low expectations of many schools than anything else.

If DC can’t cope with that level of work in year 10, they will struggle in year 11. DS1 is in y11 and he’s expected to do 3 hours of work on school nights, 10 hours over the weekend and 8-9 hours a day over the Easter holidays.

We as parents have to sign diaries to say that this has been completed and DC who don’t do this level of work will be hauled in to see the HoY.

Don't have a current year 10 but:

None during the holidays. Except about 30 minutes a day of maths and foreign languages in the last holiday before school exams.

Only homework after school/weekends unless a test was coming up and then about 2 hours revision the night before the test (or sometimes the morning of...).

Revision for maths (and some sciences) was doing practice problems, for languages and other sciences was pure memorisation. Other subjects e.g. English not revised to be honest. Except a batch of learning poetry but I think that was actually year 12 not year 10. My memory is failing me.

I'm in awe of these parents whose DC voluntarily do 6 hours a day in the holidays...!

But if your DC are not really revising, whether it's a problem depends on their grades. Some kids just get some (or all) subjects simply from classes. Homework and extra revision is a pointless chore if you already know and understand the material.

DS2 is in year 10 now and the expectation from his school (and us) is 2.5 hours work (homework and revision) on school nights and then 6 hours over the weekend.

If he has exams after a holiday period, I’d expect a minimum of 6 hours revision a day.

Only when tests coming up.

But revising for those tests also involved making proper revision cards / mind maps so that in theory by the end of the academic year all necessary notes for topics covered so far were made.

The exception was that anything not understood in maths / science was mentioned at home at the time so we could ensure that was sorted.

Year 10 exams treated seriously.

None

Unless they had tests coming up

I used to do a ton of active revision. I used BBC bitesize games in order to help me revise and made notes as well. YouTube videos were somewhat helpful. In addition I had a fair amount of homework to do each week and I also ordered workbooks off Amazon to use at home for revision.
I also stayed for after school revision sessions which helped. You may also consider hiring a tutor part time at least for now. Another method of revision is to tweak the questions on past papers you find online. You can also try doing practice questions in class etc.

In year 10, only if they had a test coming up. But I generally didn’t get involved in their revision. They sorted it themselves with whatever guidance school provided.

When my DD was Y10 she only revised if she had a test or exam coming up. The rest of the time she just did the homework that was set (which was quite a lot 2-3hrs a night).

How she revised depended on the subject and the purpose. She had a lot of the CGP revision books which were helpful. Used some online resources such as BBC bitesize and Seneca, some YouTube videos. Flash cards and mind maps which she had prepared. Probably most helpful, once she had done some of this type of work was doing past-paper questions and then checking through them with the mark scheme to see where she could improve.
