My son attended school from 8am to 4.45 everyday. Even in study week when they had no lessons they had to go in. The results definitely showed in the schools results. All of the students as well as the teachers put in 110% in everything. He attended an academy in London, they run the school with strict rules and discipline, although the kids complained at first, they all see the benefits now, most are returning for A-levels in sept.
I think this hardwork is total BS. This isn't the way to success in the UK. Boris showed us what is the right way of doing it.🦄 Look at him now, flying over the rainbow into the sunset.
GCSEs don’t determine anything, I remember when we were the first year with new grading system and they would always put unnecessary pressure on us saying we are in competition with other students across the country and that good GCSE grades leads to a happy life and getting bad grades ruins our life, which is far from the truth.
This is the third year I got 3 ? My English is getting better ,but my grade is still the same (THREE) , Not likely, AQA play dirty game and fail most the students.
@@TaxingIsThievingwe don’t have affirmative action in the UK. You are mixing US political commentary. The kids in London are children of the middle class and children of migrants who have drummed the need to succeed into them. Don’t blame black and brown kids for the white kids up north sniffing glue and drinking glens.
Yes , I do speak very good English . Obviously, From your comment ,I can see you know nothing about the GCSE English exam. It is getting harder each and every year. @alphapilly
You report this like it wasn’t expected! Why? Despite the pandemic and the strikes, results are always down the year before an election. Students have been used as a political tool by Labour for decades.
No it isn't because they graded last years easier, and the years before that got results without even doing exams overall it is completely unfair for everyone who did or were meant to be exams since 2020
@@hydraflyer This tbh, I got all C's during my GCSE I wasn't a good student. I went back to college this year after a 13 year hiatus from studying with an Access to HE course and managed to get really good grades, now I start University this year studying paramedicine. Not everyone is suited to high school it just takes the right dedication and the correct input from teaching faculty, anything is possible.
All exam results show is you have a good memory..what is the point in that when u have all the answers in your pocket…employers want people with common sense who can problem solve…Universities are a complete waste of time & money for the majority of people…
Memory, spelling, presentation, comprehension, accuracy, cognition, language, all tested and more. But sure, you stick toy your narrow little narrative. When we’re you last a school pupil? How many decades?
@@maxasaurus3008 appreciate that 👍 they brought it upon themselves for being so damn judgemental without offering ANY alternatives. Cant be taking their own depression and lack of achievement out on the kids. Nope. ✌️ I don’t care how bad it is. That and I like trying to educate the idiots for some stupid reason. Autism maybe. LOL BUT I AM OUTNUMBERED 🤣🤣🤣🤣
*The Government make GCSE's easier and easier every dam year for the past 20 years because of all the whining, and the results are always down even more. That is a fault of terrible education system.*
I don’t know where you are getting this from. As someone who has just done her GCSEs, and did papers from both the old and new spec, I can categorically tell you that the current 9-1 GCSEs are significantly harder than their A* - G predecessors
@@Countdown420 Tony Blair was prime minister from 1997 to 2007. A-star at A-level only began in 2010, and at GCSE in 1996. So of course it was (almost) impossible to get an A-star _before_ the Blair government- it didn’t exist.
