If you haven't already, I recommend making revision resources for year 10 content (eg flashcards) and then reviewing this information using active recall so you know the year 10 content. Then, in year 11 you'll only have to worry about learning the year 11 content, as you would already have the revision resources for year 10 content. I wouldn't too much about the 'amount' of revision you're doing because it's more about quality over quantity.

If you have any other questions then let me know. I got grade 9s in the subjects you mentioned you're lacking in (I did French instead of Spanish though) so I'll be happy to answer any subject specific questions you have :-)

No worries! For languages I used Memrise to learn key words/phrases. I also watched YouTube videos about how to approach the different papers (Eg what to include in the writing paper to get a grade 9). I don't remember exactly what channels are called but I'm sure if you do some searching you'll find something useful (-:
