The greatest school prank was achieved by the Union, lasting over a year! But make no mistake, the Union is now bigger than ever before and will continue to fight for your rights. The Union is here to stay and will out stay us all. #UnionPower#UgsHealedWithHoffa
@Frenchi74280369 @Indyscotforme @NicolaSturgeon@skillsdevscot@JohnSwinney Says the one that’s been spamming gifs all day to defend a government that sent thousands of old people to die in care homes during a pandemic and downgraded pupils grades because they were poor.
And there we have it! It's buried in the stats report, but confirmation that the Highers attainment gap, which decreased last year, has increased this year due to the system put in place by SQA and SNP. Balancing the books on the backs of the poor.
@Frenchi74280369 @Indyscotforme @NicolaSturgeon@skillsdevscot@JohnSwinney That can apply to you as well. Because obviously you, who isn’t a pupil or teacher, knows more about the exam process this year than the people that had to sit them.
@TheIlluminati70 @Indyscotforme @Andyc32@NicolaSturgeon@skillsdevscot If you really want I can try and find the letter that the school sent me in June?
The majority of pupils and Teachers would tell you the same.
But I’m sure you, who isn’t either, knows better, right?
The *number of passes* may be up but the *pass rate* (which is a much more useful figure) has gone down since last year.
Is it really this hard for the government to just be honest?
I'm (obviously) not at the SQA briefing but imagine my surprised to hear that they are already trying to shift the blame for the outcome of the system they out in place.
@Frederi00875507 @S_A_Somerville@JohnSwinney I’m a pupil and I did sit exams. Everyone involved in education knows this. We satvexams under exam conditions. You don’t have to lie on behalf of the SNP, they do it enough themselves.
@Frederi00875507 @S_A_Somerville@JohnSwinney Instead we were told near the end of October what was happening. And they weren’t even clear. The gov constantly said we were not doing exams when we actually had to sit more than usual, just not national exams. Teachers did not decide our grades.
@Frederi00875507 @S_A_Somerville@JohnSwinney At the start of the year in August announce that pupils Will sit exams, like we did this year in class. The big difference is that we would know early on and there would be no confusion as to whether or not pupils are sitting exams because now half the country thinks we didn’t
@S_A_Somerville@JohnSwinney The public aren’t stupid. We all know @JohnSwinney only had his desk changed so that he could avoid proper consequences. If a Teacher or headTeacher messed up this badly they would get the sack.
@S_A_Somerville No thanks to the SQA or Scottish government who didn’t set out a clear plan for the exams until October. And then claimed we weren’t sitting any exams when in fact we had to sit more than ever. Pupils and Teachers are still waiting for @JohnSwinney to be held accountable.
@seumasabheinn @Camerxn_Cxxxll @Andyc32 The results were the same. Stop with your delusion. The SNP don’t need you to lie for them, they do it enough themselves.
