Around 40% of kids leave school in England with no qualifications, so it's clear the current system isn't working. I see this as a positive move.

Perhaps a more formalised examination which sets the bar a bit higher may lead to improvements in education standards. |

I don't really understand the need to overhaul the entire qualification system that's in place at the moment. I mean there is problems with it, but the entire removal in favour of the baccalaureate seems like needless work on the part of everyone involved. I think the same of the planned A-Level changes too, I mean they're more than tough at the moment.
I remember listening to a Radio 4 programme with my Dad about this a few months ago. A lot of respected teachers etc were on there critiquing all the problems with the baccalaureate. I'll have to find it..

There isn't that much difference between GCSE and the old O levels, we were the first to do them in 88 and we were told that higher A-C is O level grade and foundation D-below CSE.
Any changes made would be to improve prospects for ESOL students, this may be where the baccalaureate comes in?
