        @BBCNews @NickyMorgan01 More commodification. The idea of education for its own sake? Maybe music; art? Nah - learning for earning eh?

        @BBCNews @NickyMorgan01 Keep upping the ante! Qualifications are like any other currency: the more there are the less they're worth.

        @BBCNews 2/2 wants teachers to look out for radical behaviour. Homophobia was in this country long before ISIS.

        @BBCNews not all kids can do exams. Not all kids are Book smart. Shud leave knowing 3Rs, hv self esteem and be good member of society.

        @BBCNews Thought GCSEs were supposed to be about pupil attainment not school achievement. I have a letter from @NickyMorgan01 to prove it
