was said by the previous government to indicate how they had improved our
educational standards but I, for one, have never been happy about that
suspecting that what has really happened is that the exams have got easier.
Is a grade C GCSE still regarded as an O-level pass? If so then the
proportion of those reaching that grade sounds too high to be credible.
Maybe a better test of how good our schools really are is what skills their
pupils are found to have when they join the world of the employed or those
seeking employment and here we seem to have a disconnect.
