Angry 10 O levels, 12 A levels - didn't I do well?

Well, OK, that's not really me (definitely NOT that academic), but if they follow through with plan to let children mark their own course work, set their own homework, and decide what questions they should be given in tests, that's the way it's going to be from now on.

Is it me, or is the education system going COMPLETELY bonkers? I was expected to work hard to pass my exams, not decide how easy they should be so I could pass without trying!

I get so sick of everything being handed to kids on a plate these days - no wonder the world is going to hell when no-one knows what it's like to work for what you want!



Rant over!
