Stabilo Aid Memory Boosting During Exams

May 14, 2025 /

Last Thursday, my son Joe started his GCSE exams. After a lot of hard work and studying, the reality that ‘this is really it’ finally sank in. Exam time is a daunting time for any teen, and having some good revision strategies is one way to channel your time and make it count. Your notes and revision papers need to be useful for you, and not just reams of copy that you read and it goes in, and then instantly goes out.

Stationery experts STABILO believe that good tools are a way to aid revision. They are aiming to support students across the UK with expertly designed stationery that does more than just look good, but also helps students stay focused, motivated, and in control of their workload by helping to both highlight and organise their learning in a bright and colourful way that makes the information stand out.

Research

Stabilo researched strategies for learning in their recent ‘Start Beginning campaign’, The findings from this campaign showed that three in five young adults aged 18–24 say that handwriting a list makes them more likely to remember to do things. In an age dominated by digital tools, this reinforces the power of putting pen to paper – especially when preparing for exams. I am a great note taker myself, and can certainly vouch for the fact that these work so well as an aid memoir for important things that you are worried about forgetting.

For GCSE/SATS revision season, Stabilo are spotlighting four must-have STABILO essentials for every study setup:

    My friend is a maths teacher in a low income secondary school. I would love to win this so she can share them with her pupils, who are unlikely to have access to these sorts of pens at home.
