Decision time for hundreds of students
It’s GCSE results day, and hundreds of Island students will find out their grades today as they consider further education or joining the world of work.
But as well as the start of their journeys, it’s also the beginning of the end of the qualifications they’ve just sat.
The Isle of Man is to phase out many GCSE subjects from this year, replacing them with the exam’s international version.
Paul Craine from the Department of Education and Children says it’ll be a gradual process:
500% increase in immigration arrests on the Isle of Man
More taxpayers' cash could be spent on 'cleaner heating'
RAF veteran says assisting blind climber will be 'massive honour'
Financial leaders from small countries visiting Island
