This document discusses proposed changes to the UK education system curriculum. It suggests raising the compulsory education age to 16 and requiring students to complete GCSEs. Further education like A-Levels would be optional. The changes are aimed to provide more opportunities for higher education and better jobs. Potential advantages include higher qualified individuals and benefits for disadvantaged people. Disadvantages could include lack of university places and larger class sizes providing less focus. The conclusion states the changes may be beneficial but the results remain unseen as no students have passed through the full revised system.
