I'll admit to voting  (and doing work that is completely useless by most people's standards  )

Re: The Combined Brain Power of Cable Forum
GNVQ is General National Vocational Qualification, although some say it stands for Generally Not Very Qualified! It is done in the last 2years of school (16-18) done by people who are heading for a vocational as opposed to academic career.
A level is 'Advanced level' and a levels are the school leavers exams for 18year olds, a lot of people who do a levels go to uni. The name came from the fact that GCSEs (General Certificate of Seconday Education), the statuary exams for 16 year olds, used to be called o levels- ordinary level.
Everyone has to take between 9-12 GCSEs and if they chose to do A levels, 4-6 subjects is now the norm, although pre 2002 the system was different, and people generally did only 3 A level subjects.
