I'm dreading GCSE results day this year... the results all get published in the newspaper :frown:


Our names surely don't also get published?

Does anyone remember sometime on the last thread when someone posted a YouTube link of a group of people dancing strangely? They all had strange costumes on, and might have been classed as 'alternative'? It was hilarious, and I'd love to see it again if anyone knows what I'm on about. :biggrin:

Our results are posted on the notice board for the whole year. So basically, if I score a bad grade, I'll get annoying little year 8s and 9s laughing at me for the whole year :frown:
Still, isn't as bad as yours though :wink:

What exam board are you with? Have you done your OMAM and An Inspector Calls papers yet?

Seen that before many a time (cheers Reddit) and instantly thought of it when Catherine mentioned alternative dancing :biggrin:

Some of the comments were golden, pity they disabled them :frown:

Yes! That's it, thanks! I just love it at 1:49, when the woman in the purple trousers starts going wild :rofl:

Eurgh, I'd hate that. I really hope I don't come across anything like that in my school! :eek:

But I don't think they post individual results for each subject. In the newspapers (and in my school) they just have the amount of A*-C passes.

Ah, now that could be it. I don't recall seeing the newspaper very clearly (although I have seen it before), but that makes sense. :smile:

I get really annoyed when I hear about how some other schools conduct the Controlled Assessment malarky! In my school, we go to the exam hall every time, with our 1 page of notes, and write it all out. My friends from other schools tell me they can ask their teacher to read through their work and correct it etc. Some even take it home! Surely this isn't fair?!


The snow looks lovely though!

My school do the former only with English, but with Geography and Music they are very sneaky and pretend to not notice that people do the work at home. Yeah, it's unfair - but who's going to stop them? :frown:
I don't think teachers directly say you can take them home, just sort of turn a blind eye when people do. Also, I've known teachers to add like, five more hours onto it! It's pretty bad.

Yeah, it's a shame really. But I don't think those other schools are in the wrong (well they are, but it's very common to not be uptight with CAs) but rather my school for being over anal.

My History and English teachers last year allowed us to do that. Completely unfair but we didn't complain /shrug.

BLOODY SNOW EVERYWHERE

Someone told me that "remember, snow brings light in the darkness of winter!!" and I was like, "yeah, and so does the sun, so bugger off." Bah humbug.

Still praying for a snow day tomorrow though... :redface:
