A = Achiever or Ass which was it?
B= Bastard! You just missed out didnt you!
C= come to after school revision and you may get a b next time.
D = dunce cap is next you know!
E = Excellent work socializing you git this a school your here to learn.
If it was my kids may take more notice.
It's a 2 year vocational qualification for 16-18 year olds which leads you onto University. Or just to show that you've been educated at a good level. You can study them in some schools (Known as sixth form) but mainly colleges. There was a sixth form centre at my high school and that's where I studied. You study 3-4 subjects.
And yes they are marked by grades A, B, C, D, E, U.
