Stop GCSE exams

Background

We call on the Government to scrap GCSE exams and replace them with fairer continuous assessments, coursework, and smaller tests. We think this would reduce stress, improve mental health, and better prepare students for future education.

Additional details

We think this could lead to: ~Reduced stress – exams can put extreme pressure on students’ mental health. ~Fairer grading – continuous assessment may show true ability, not just exams. ~Real learning – focus on understanding, not memorization. ~Support for creativity – lets students show skills beyond written tests.
