Scottish exams

Should Scotland change the exam system? No official sit down exams. You could still have external markers, but all your work would be done in class previously, like portfolio work, with a teacher supervising. Do you think this would be better for your stress levels and mental health?

There should still be some sort of exams for each subject that pupils do and also count all the work they done in the classroom and at home.


Scottish resident who has been through the Scottish schools exams system and not done me any harm with the degrees and job I am doing. Work hard to gain confidence and the requirements for the individual courses at university or college and I think everyone would do excellent with there degrees etc after leave school.
