Abstract
- The article discusses the state of the education system in Wales, particularly focusing on its poor test results from the A-level and General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) examinations. It addresses policy decisions made in the early 2000s that eliminated formal assessments of Welsh students in favor of teacher-led assessment. It notes the Programme for International Student Assessment (Pisa), Welsh education minister Leighton Andrews, and underperformance in key skills. INSET: Paper problem.
