new gcses 

Evidence of how dimwitted the government is - that is the people who we're supposed to trust to run our country. They are essentially gcses but made harder for no good reason

Like when in real life would you have to work out some scientific equation but not have the necessary formulas accessible? (Science)
Who really cares about the deeper meanings of lines in shakespeare?(English Lit)
When in real life would someone ask you why there is a comma at this part of the sentence?(English Lang)
When in real life are you going to a country worth visiting where they don't speak english?(MFL)

This is the kind of rubbish the government thinks they are "preparing" us for.

What's worse is no one actually knows how this new system works and year 11s 2017 are the guinea pigs who will suffer from this madness.
Additionally, 2 years later your gcses count for nothing because once you've done your a levels that is all anyone cares about!

Yes we are expected to toil and sweat and experience major stress over 11 subjects that are mostly irrelevant to real life to receive results that become meaningless!!!
Government: Hey - in case you didn't think gcses were already hard and pointless enough we've created new gcses! We do this because we like two torment teenagers as if they're not struggling already with puberty and all.
And oh yeah just to make things more confusing we're gonna grade you with numbers now, not letters

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
