Replace A-Levels With More 'Rigorous' Assessment, Says Former PM's Think Tank
The Independent
|August 23, 2022
GCSEs and A-levels should be ditched in favour of a new qualification that better prepares school-leavers for the workplace, former Labour PM Tony Blair's think tank has suggested.
The education system needs "radical" change if England's students are to thrive in an economy shaped by automation and artificial intelligence, the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change (TBI) has said.
The TBI recommended replacing existing exams with a brand new system that involves "rigorous" forms of continuous assessment between the ages of 16 and 18. The think tank suggested a new qualification for 18-year-olds could "draw on and refine the principles" that underpin the International Baccalaureate, used by many other leading countries.

SEND must be reformed to keep vital service going
Political consensus is an unusually rare commodity these days, but there does seem to be unanimous agreement that the present system for helping children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) needs radical reform. Aspects of the current regime are grotesque, if not cruel, and have inflicted great distress on children, parents, teachers and everyone else involved. It is a major concern at every level of the state.
