Tests scrapped for 14 year olds

[LoveToStack]

im totally ignorant to SATs and GCSEs. In bonnie scotland its;

Standard Grade
Int 1
Int 2
Higher
Advanced Higher

with most people doing some Standard grades, some Int 2s, and then going onto higher and Advanced highers if you can be arsed.

About time the Year 9 SATs have gone... the Year 9 system has had flaws virtually every year (well, every year in the last 7 that I can recall).



Okay let's get this over and done with... GCSEs are £$%& easy, even my little brother can do it (he has done them, actually).

Life gets harder. Get used to it. SATs will seem difficult at the time because you haven't been given anything more challenging... so they are the most difficult obstacle you have crossed. Same goes for GCSEs, until you've done them. Same goes for AS-level, and to some extent A2.

Take a look at the real world before you start moaning so obnoxiously.

now ey, no need in that .

You have it so easy in Europe with school. You get SO MUCH TIME OFF! Two weeks just because it's mid term.

Not as much as we used to...

We get 6 weeks off in summer, 2 in Christmas, 2 in Easter then 1 in October, 1 in February and 1 for May for half terms.

Which is 13 weeks out of 52 in total. That's still 37 weeks at school...

Still more time off than me...2 weeks for Easter!?

[Ajthedragon]

No sats.

Yay, we can mess around in maths for yet another year.

[Loqo]

So I have to do them and my Sister doesn't have to suffer now? Damm!

[Zuar]

Yeah, the sats were a total fail anyway.
We did them in year 8; in our school.

So yeah, WOOP for the people who don't have to do them.
But you'll prob' just have to start your GCSEs a year early.
Like we did.
