There has been speculation in the media about the education system changing and how the standard GCSE'S are changing into O-levels as they have become easy for students to pass and they think that O-Levels would be a better way to challenge and stimulate students minds. Personally, I think that changing GCSE'S to O-Levls is a ridicule thing to do, being a teenager myself I know how hard it was going through the stress leading up to my final GCSE exams.
Schools are great in preparing students for their exams as they know how important they are however with O-Levels they are much harder to achieve than GCSE'S. Some students already find the whole dynamics of GCSE'S tough, so why would anyone want to put young students under more strain of passing these life changing exams? It just doesn't make any sense to how this is going to help young students in achieveing the best results possible.
What with the economic defall it's hard enough finding a job that pays a reasonable amount, now with the hardship of O-Levels where does the leave future generations in finding a job? Children should not be defined by letters on a piece of paper, they should be given the chance to prove themselves and how people what they are made of. Society is too fixated on classes and trends that if one is unique they are seen as 'weird' or a 'freak' because they stand out from the crowd. I believe that if someone has a dream, then grades shouldn't stand in the way of that they should chase what they believe in.
