Re: Update to the[Update] "English Baccalaureate" replaces GCSE in England

Quote:
Plans to scrap GCSEs in key subjects in England and replace them with English Baccalaureate Certificates are set to be abandoned by the government.
The reversal is set to be announced by the education secretary in the Commons later, alongside curriculum changes.
Michael Gove had planned to bring in what he said were more rigorous exams in some core subjects from 2015, but faced criticism from MPs and teachers.
Labour said it was a "humiliating climbdown".
The change means plans for the new qualification, announced in September, will be shelved, while GCSEs are retained, despite having been condemned by the education secretary.

I wonder what he's got planned next?
