Government looks to change GCSE Exams

The video discusses the potential reintroduction of O levels in the UK education system, comparing them to current GCSE exams. It highlights the perceived benefits of O levels, such as deeper understanding and mental maths, and the criticisms of GCSEs for promoting superficial learning. The proposed changes include scrapping the national curriculum and allowing schools more freedom. While some support the move for its academic rigor, others fear it may create a two-tier system. The debate reflects differing views on the best approach to education reform.
