my DD aged 17 in her first year of sixth form studying 3 betecs she is capable but struggles with ADHD and mild dyslexia , she has mocks starting on Monday and has spent the half term working 7 days in a local kids adventure soft play , 2 days out with friends and a family day out . she has done about 3 days of revision so overall about 10 hours when school reccomended 30 hours + . she has does pastpapers today but has been getting about 15/80 in these I don't think she understands the importance that she wont be going into yr 13 if she fails these
what can we do to help

You can’t do anything.

She needs to take complete ownership now. Step back. If she fails, she fails and it’ll be her failure.
