Default Exam Results

With very high A Level & GCSE results - can we concluded that kids don't need to be at school so much?

Funny that, in Germany they do far less hours at school and are expected to study more at home!

It'll have been an interesting experiment to try - see what the effect actually was.
Now i know the results are often skewed a little by the government - but if they could do it so it was a fair reflection - i wonder what it would show?

The unionist in me refused to 'work' out of hours. Only ever did it under duress (detention or the threat of it).

Wondering now if my 'B' grade English GCSEs are now worthless now that the modern illiterates get A grades.
