I think you should definitely learn material ahead of time - but if you don't, it's not a problem as it's just GCSEs. But, don't ever think like that - I'd rather you finish the content earlier and use the lessons just to ask everything you possibly struggle with.
•
Do homework as soon as possible or I'd rather say, whenever you revise those topics before (that's my new plan for A-levels since I'm changing). Every homework is linked to what you've studied or what you're going to study in terms of topics. If it's what you've studied then just do it today, so you remember what you've learnt and can also test your understanding in that way if the homework includes questions. If it's what you're going to learn, just do it before the lesson so that when you come into the lesson you already know some of the stuff and just reinforce your knowledge.
•
Watch TV if you want to - just make sure what you're watching is good and not stupid stuff like I do lol which is of no use. Try to cut down on game time, PLEASE. I played 8 hours a day and I don't even know - I'm just really lucky or clever, no idea which one - or both? . Use your phone whenever you want to, but again - stick to your limits.

I'd recommend to create a revision timetable if you're going to follow it, at least try to. Revise for 3 hours a day at GCSE - it's way more than enough I think considering you've got a lot of talent. I never did anything compared to that, but again - I wish I did. Do past papers the next day - but only do past papers once you've finished learning the content required for the syllabus, don't do past paper questions just to test that topic's knowledge. Use questions from textbooks to do that - past papers are only meant to be done after you've learnt it all.
•
Try to make Sunday your relaxing day, but also keep in mind you have to study. I'd say, revise the same amount on Sunday - 3 hours, but again it's your choice. At A-levels, I'd revise more on weekends because you'd have to, you're helpless.
