GCSE english speech?

some people in my class did the finland education system u could do that

I have to do a speech for GCSE english language to my class (im in year 10), and I’m not sure what to do it on. My teacher is super unhelpful and just told us to do a ‘serious topic’ and people in my class are doing feminism, religion vs medicine, inflation, student debt etc. It’s probably bad but I don’t really know anything about any of these sort of topics, and I’m not necessarily ‘passionate’ about any causes or world issues (?). What should i do?

I would suggest you do something that you have some knowledge on because you will have to answer some questions from the teacher or the class about that topic.

This is so off topic but what seems to be the discussion around Finland’s education system? My interest is piqued. (Not a GCSE student btw)

Its like drastically different to the uk system bcs they dont have any kind of exam until 18 or smth i think and they dont have set classes or very many rules in school either and they let u study what u want from when ur a kid until 16/18 and its been very successful i forgot the exact number but it was like 97% of finland students did something idk what the something was and they beat the uk in those like reading and maths tests so they were saying if this worked so well for finland surely it can work for the uk too
