Now GCSE students have excelled themselves. Let's have permanent pandemics and record breaking attainment. Do we actually need school anymore?

The RN discovered that I had zero GCSEs when they first picked me for advancement.
Forced to sit English, Maths and History while at sea wasn’t my favourite deployment.

I’m sure you are correct. There is an alternative view on the news that the teacher assessments are a fairer and more accurate reflection of the students’ skills

To measure attainment across a cohort it has to be standardized. Teacher asssessment is just the opposite. That is why you need externally set, marked,and standardized exams. Not course work ,as this is prey to teacher subjectivity. If I was an employer or university entrance officer I would not trust the results of the last two years. Im afraid this inept government gave in to the teaching unions. The only people to lose out are the students, who will always have the stigma of rigged results hanging over their heads.It must be incredibly galling to those really gifted students who will never get the recognition they deserved.

You seem very bitter against teachers Bill.
The kids all have lots of pieces of evidence to support their grades. Course work, mock exam results etc. The teacher assessment are subject to scrutiny and 3rd party ratification. Its probably a more reflective way to do things rather than exams which are essentially a memory test.
Yes, some kids bomb exams so this will have suited them better but kids have had it tough in covid so if they cop a break with teacher assessments then good luck to them.

What makes me smile is the utter stupidity of anyone who cannot see that these results are an utter fiasco. Warnock4 Warnock4 Warnock4
