Swinney's Announcement Tomorrow

[sonicbook]

Any ideas what he will announce tomorrow? Any predictions?

Is his resignation too much to hope for?

I don't have DC in the school system anymore so I'm not completely up to date with the issues, but I'm going for Nat 5s move to internal assessment like Nat 4s, Highers and AHs to go ahead on a limited basis - or maybe something else completely - depending on which way the wind blows on Christmas Day at noon.

I think you're right. Spot on in fact.

I read on twitter it's delayed until Wednesday which probably means Nicola announcing something tomorrow

I was just about to post asking the same. Nothing on the parliament schedule for tomorrow that I can see. I think N5 will be internal assessment. There has to be some allowance for the lack of practical work for H and AH sciences? I hope so anyway! We've been teaching the exam courses for nearly four months as we started after Easter. It's ridiculous that teachers and students still don't know how they will be assessed next year.

It's becoming unforgivable.

I can still see it on tomorrow's schedule.

I've read it has been delayed too. Can't believe it. Even if there is some kind of "news" from NS tomorrow I don't see why that impacts on the SQA news.

Oh you’re joking it’s delayed??!! I can’t bear it! My DS is doing Higher’s and I’m wound up enough. Sympathies to all the teachers desperate for some clarity.

It's still on the schedule for today according to the link above. NS is announcing 'news' tomorrow according to BBC.

The only announcement I’d ever want to hear from the SNP is their mass resignation and the closure of Holyrood. Freeing up millions to spend on resuscitating the corpses of Scottish education, industry and health care.

Nothing! They are absolute fuckers.

I'm hoping for this too!
