Re: [Update] "English Baccalaureate" replaces GCSE in England
Typical govenment using a word thats not english
http://oxforddictionaries.com/defini.../baccalaureate
Quote:
Origin:
mid 17th century (in baccalaureate (sense 2)): from French baccalauréat or medieval Latin baccalaureatus, from baccalaureus 'bachelor'. The earlier form baccalarius was altered by wordplay to conform with bacca lauri 'laurel berry', because of the laurels awarded to scholars. baccalaureate (sense 1) dates from 1970
