Milestones

I want the government to scrap the GCSE system because I don't think the exams give a true representation of a student's knowledge. Some have said they should be scrapped after seeing a decline in young people's mental health around the GCSE period.

I think we need to teach our children real life skills and that tailoring a child's education to their needs is vital for their growth. I feel that our current education system doesn't do that.
