Let’s Have Later Exams

The school year lasts until the third week in July or thereabouts. Exams end a month earlier (A – Level/GCSE) or much earlier (IB)/University.
If the end of exams coincided with the end of the academic year, students would get longer to study and maybe get better results.

Teachers With Guns

trump wants teachers to have guns in the classroom, so they can shoot students with guns.
It is not only students who go mad.
Teachers go mad too.
If teachers have guns, we might see a spate of teachers going on the rampage. They can lock the classroom door and kill all their students.
Then we will hear that every student in the USA should go to school with a gun.

Coursework is Useless

I always hated coursework. The pain of doing it spread over weeks compared to a couple of hours for an exam.
Now coursework is an invitation to cheat because of the internet. The only way to stop cheating would be to write a new question for every piece of coursework.
Now a computer science GCSE piece of coursework has been leaked and will not be assessed because PEOPLE WILL CHEAT!
Exactly what I said!
