Some Students in A Levels are struggling to cope up with independent studies because of a lot of independent study (50%) (13.5-18 hours). However, since GCSE’s consistent of roughly 9 or 10 subjects, it should be 8% of the time (2 hours) independent study and only doing 8 or 9 GCSE Subjects roughly. This will help for students when they go on to do A Levels, BTECS or apprenticeships as well as later on in life for Uni/Jobs.
