Bottom of the class?


You've probably heard that today's GCSE results were, for the 23rd successive year, the "best ever."

Therefore, as one of the poor souls who sat the very first GCSE examinations 22 years ago, I am forced to conclude the following:

Not only do we class of '88 obviously remain the most ancient group of individuals to have collectively taken GCSEs, we are still officially the thickest.

A big gold star for us.

  1. Do I detect a little cynicism creeping in here Barry?

    We all know that what is claimed about each year being the best ever is just a load of rubbish!

    Your year was probably the best ever as they have dumbed GCSE's down so much now that your thickest class mate would probably pass with flying honours now!
