The homegrown network came down to the docklands youth centre in st.pauls and spoke to the directors of ACE and founder of hi-road studios.
The directors of ACE had been mentored through music provisions as young people and have strived to make sure these same provisions are available for the next generation.
But not to worry we have the remedy that will help you get through!
1. Positive mental attitude
Tell your self you CAN do it, you CAN make it through and you WILL achieve the results you are looking for
2. Get a good nights sleep
A good nights sleep will keep you refreshed and help your brain to relax. Over working and working under stressful conditions is not good.
3. Work for 20 minutes
Plan what you are going to do and do it for 20 minutes. After that take a break, then get back to it for a further 20 minutes Until you have tackled your days study.
4. Get a study buddy
Revise with someone taking the same exams. This will help you both. you can test each other and share knowledge
5. Eat Brain Foods
A bad diet can leave you feeling tired and not being able to concentrate.
Make sure you are eating a good healthy balanced diet to get you through.
Keeping active can help reduce stress, leaving your mind and body feeling good!
7. Read out loud
You are more likely to remember something if you say it. Reading aloud will help to imprint information into your brain
8. Make time for friends
During this busy time it is easy to only focus on the task you have ahead of you! But make sure you make time to socialise and have fun also. All work and no play makes a dull day!
9. Ask for help
All of your teachers, friends and family are resources you can use to help you along the way if you feel lost stuck or cant get the hang of something.
10. Prep for exams the day before!
Dont leave it to the morning to pack everything you need. Before you go to bed (nice and early!) make sure you have your bag packed with all the resources you need. This will help your morning be less stressful helping you be prepared for the exam.

Like a Phoenix that rose from the fire ACE was born in extreme times of change.
The youth service was being commissioned to big organisations, Docklands Youth Centre was at threat of loosing important and needed youth provisions.
Three years ago the young people in St Pauls that had been using the services and more importantly had made positive relations with ourselves where being threatened with not having a fun, safe and educational space filled with great resources and positive role models. Their only other option being led into a life of crime and negativity.
That’s when ACE was born
To keep the needed services and support for young people in St Pauls and three years later we are still running strong, using creative arts activities as a vehicle to mentor, educate & inspire young people towards becoming positive members of their community.
This type of engagement to disadvantaged young people can provide the needed inspiration, empowerment & positivity to implement cohesion & growth within their communities.
ACE look beyond the surface of what today’s disadvantaged youths face:
A cycle of inequality
Low aspirations
Negativity
High risk of criminal record before 18
Which ultimately have damaging affects on families, communities & even societies.
As a Community Interest Company, we feel it’s crucial that we operate on multiple fronts, which all contribute towards our overarching aim of reaching more people and provide a wider range of positive community activities.
Our work in the community is the primary focus of our organisation. It is the direct route to reaching our ultimate vision. These vital services are mostly sustained by funding grants to carryout the work.
We hope to sustain & expand our community work through increasing our commercial and commissioning profits to reinvest.
All money made from the CDs will ensure the space and activities we provide for young people can continue.
