Are your DC revising over the holidays?

DS IS 13 (YR 8) with wnd of year assessments starting soon after he goes back to school on Monday. He spent the past few days away with grandparents but now he's back home I feel he should do some revision.

Problem is he has zero interest. When I ask him to revise he sits upstairs pretending to. If I take his phone away he says he needs it for mathspad/corbettmaths/teams etc and Ive checked they do have to use them. His laptop isn't working properly at the moment so cant use that. If I sit with him toddler won't always let him focus. For full disclosure he is low needs autistic and academically capable but has ZERO motivation. His maths teacher in particular shared her concerns that if he doesn't do well he will drop a set. What do I do? I was actually so sick of his attitude earlier that I walked away and left him to it as I got so stressed. And decided if he wants to fail, then he can. But I honestly want him to do well. Anyone else in the same boat?
