Should we change the current system of examinations for our 16 and 18 year olds? During the past two years both GCSEs and A level examinations have not gone ahead. So are they no longer needed? The current system was set up as a conduit for the now, 50 percent of students who go to university. But what about those who don't go on to higher education, are they being catered for? Is there a better way to assess what young people have learnt whilst at school that will help them get what they want out of life in the future? Amol Rajan and guests discuss.
