General Certificate of Secondary Education: Encyclopedia II - General Certificate of Secondary Education - Structure

A different examination is taken for each area of study, but school students are usually obliged to take examinations for certain "core subjects" (English, English literature, Mathematics and Science) along with several optional subjects. Normally pupils take nine GCSEs, though taking more is not unusual. There is also an option for students to take "short" or "half" courses for certain subjects. Grades range from an A* to G, with a U standing for Ungraded. The A* was introdu ...

General Certificate of Secondary Education: Encyclopedia II - David Copeland - Early life

Copeland was born in Isleworth, London, and brought up in Yateley, Hampshire, where he attended Yateley comprehensive school and passed in seven subjects in his General Certificate of Secondary Education. He apparently resented that he was small for his age, and was given the nickname "Mr. Angry." After his arrest, he told psychiatrists that he had started having sadistic dreams when he was about 12, including dreams or fantasies that he'd be reincarnated as an SS officer with access to women as slaves. He left school when he was 16 to start ...

General Certificate of Secondary Education: Encyclopedia II - Standard Grade - History and Future

The Standard Grade replaced the old O-Grade qualification, and was phased in from the late-1980s until the early-1990s. The Standard Grade system is now being slowly phased out in favour of the SQA's Higher Still system, as many, students and teachers alike, feel that the jump from Standard Grade to Higher is too difficult, particularly in subjects such as English. Although they are not exactly the same, the Foundation Level is similar to Higher Still's Access 3 level, whilst General is similar to Intermediate 1 and Credit is similar ...

General Certificate of Secondary Education: Encyclopedia II - David Copeland - Motivation

Though some groups did claim responsibility for the bombings, Copeland maintained he had worked alone and had not discussed his plans with anyone, which the police accepted. During police interviews, he admitted holding neo-Nazi views, and talked of his desire to be famous, to "spread fear, resentment, and hatred throughout" the UK, and to "cause a racial war" in the UK. When asked why he had targeted ethnic minorities and the gay community, he spoke of his belief that ethnic minorities are ...

General Certificate of Secondary Education: Encyclopedia II - David Copeland - Bombings

Copeland's first attack, on Saturday, April 17, 1999, was in Electric Avenue, Brixton, part of the so-called "frontline," a street made famous in the UK by the 1981 Brixton race riots that took place there. Copeland made his bomb using explosive from fireworks and taped it inside a sports bag before priming it and planting it outside the Iceland supermarket on the corner of Electric Avenue. The market traders became suspicious of it and moved it several times before it detonated just as the police arrived, at 5:25 in the evening. Fift ...

General Certificate of Secondary Education: Encyclopedia II - David Copeland - Capture

The Anti-Terrorist Branch of the Metropolitan Police Service identified Copeland from CCTV footage of Brixton. The image was given wide publicity on Thursday, April 29, which caused Copeland to bring forward his bombing of the Admiral Duncan to Friday evening. Paul Mifsud, a work colleague of Copeland's, recognised him and alerted the police about an hour and 20 minutes before the bombing. Copeland was arrested that night once the police obtained his address, a rented room in Farnborough, Hampshire. His mental state was assessed at Br ...

General Certificate of Secondary Education: Encyclopedia II - Standard Grade - Levels of Award

There are three sub-levels at which Standard Grade exams can be taken, namely "Foundation Level", "General Level" and "Credit Level". At one sitting, students generally sit either the Foundation and General level papers together, or the General and Credit level papers together. Students are awarded a numerical grade for each examination (which may consist of several papers) ranging from 1 (best) to 7 (worst). 1 and 2 correspond to Credit Level, 3 and 4 to General Level, 5 and 6 to Foundation Level, and 7 to "c ...

General Certificate of Secondary Education: Encyclopedia II - General Certificate of Secondary Education - History

GCSE was introduced for teaching in September 1986, and replaced both the O-level GCE (Ordinary level General Certificate of Education) and the CSE (Certificate of Secondary Education) qualifications, which suffered problems due to the two-tieredness of the system. Grade C of the GCSE was set at the level where the O Level and CSE overlapped (making grades A-C equivalent to the respective O-level pass grades and grade ...
