GCSEs and A-levels: Are pupils ready to take exams once more?

  1. I hope so, but I guess it depends on the input the students have or if government is going to hamstring results depending in post code again.

  2. I am 18, I’m being told that we’re the most laid back Year 13’s my college has seen, and that’s probably because, um, I dunno, I didn’t do my GCSE’s. They said normally by now, there’s mass panic, but most people this year are just “Ugh, don’t mention it.”

    On the one hand, this could be a boon, people are revising and if we sit down and do the test and mentally just treat it like all the other tests we’ve done, stress might interfere less with the quality of the work.

    On the other, we could all do dog shit.

    And on my hands, I just want it to be over.

  3. As they will ever be. They get the grade equal to the work put in. That is not to say a child that gets a 4 has not worked hard they may have been predicted 2. At some point children have to take responsibility for their gcse.
