| dc.description.abstract | Like many other parents, I am driving around the island taking my son to his A-Level and Intermediate exams and my daughter to sit for her O-Levels. This is the time when as a parent I realise that even though we have heard so much rhetoric about an educational system that should 'develop the person holistically', here we are confirming that our system is as exam-based as ever, placing huge pressure on students and essentially testing our children on what they don’t know rather than what they do. It is not all black and bleak, and we have seen some allusion to improvements. | en_GB |
