Top tips from a Grade 9 student:

Practice your coding all the time: coding is like maths. You need to practice it to get better at it.
Learn all the content: this is very important for Paper 1 as it is mainly just theory.
Do practice papers under timed conditions & use the mark scheme well.
Ask your teacher for help if you don't understand.
Use the Internet to learn some Python tricks: they can help if you get stuck with some code.
Enjoy it: Computer Science is the future, have fun with it.
