...the results they need.

Yes, good luck to them.

The ones that were on daybreak (that I saw) got what they wanted so well done.

Just hope they can get a foothold in a career that does their education justice. From what I've witnessed a decent education is a poor relation to the ethos of 'being in the right place at the right time' and 'its not what you know, its who you know'

[cazzz1975]

yes good luck to the students today, its hard work, I hope they get what they need.

Its a pity that education does not teach common sense - every time we have a new intake of graduates I seriously want to shake them!!

[bibblebub]

if only we didn't have to see them on tv - group hugs, OMGs - it's all so american

[cazzz1975]

if you think thats american, you should see the proms!

I hope that some stuffed shirt of a politician doesn't get on the news and start banging about how standards have dropped which is why there are more passes than last year. Because it happens very blo0dy year !

I think they're starting to, fgt. Mine have psce (personal, social, citizenship education). They do budgeting, employment, CVs, interviews, drug/alcohol abuse, racism, sexism. Maybe not common sense, exactly, but helpful for the "real world."

[friedgreentomato]

That sounds good pixie - it can be so frustrating at times!

And, yes, good luck to anyone waiting x
