I think in some ways it is a good idea because when I was doing GCSE English and Spanish people used to cheat on their coursework and end up with higher grades that others because of it. Which i don't think is entirely fair.

I agree, however it would be unlucky if someone had a bad day on the exam because they won't allow resits anymore.

I haven't properly researched them as it won't affect me, but I feel that it depends on the subject as to whether no coursework is a good idea or not. I dislike the removal of American literature I believe is happening, but Great Expectations is undoubtedly a brilliant novel. David Copperfield is better though.
