Feeling incredibly proud of our granddaughter Maddie. She just passed all her GCSEs with As and some *s.
I’m still trying to work out what they mean. Everything’s changed since they were called O-levels.

Excellent results from Natasha and Maddie, congratulations! 🌟.
It's been a very tough year for children and particularly for those facing exams. There’s a lot in the media about grade creep and suspicions about teacher assessment, but I’d love to see some of the complainers trying the exams themselves.
We once did teacher assessment at a very tough primary school I taught at as part of inspection and it was very vigorous; we were professionals, however well we wanted our own pupils to do well.
Fingers crossed for Aiden.

Well done to all those mentioned above and to all the young people who achieve their desired grades.
Contrary to what we old and curmudgeonly think, the youth of today have a great shot at the future once we are out of the way!

It is already starting with the legalization of marijuana in many countries and States. Whether it be for recreational use or medical all it needed for the oldes to retire or pass.. |

Proud to say that he got all the grades he required to progress to Selby College. Well done Aiden! Just returned from a "well done Aiden" lunch at our local to celebrate. His Mum was there but Dad is working.

Yes well done to all concerned, it can’t have been easy for young people this year. In my experience they are much more focused and hard working than we give them credit for.
