Proceeding contribution from Lord Brennan of Canton (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 April 2013. It occurred during Adjournment debate on AS-levels and A-levels.
AS-levels and A-levels
I talked yesterday to a teacher whose son, Joseph, went to a state school. Had the current proposals been in place he would have taken English as his AS-level rather than A-level, but he is now studying English at Oxford. That never would have happened if the choices had been narrowed, as is suggested, at the age of 16.
