National 5 is a terrible system because easily distracted students are being kept in school to "study" which will not happen due to classmates distracting them, teachers cannot give full support as they don't know the curriculum very well, random Higher things being taught particularly in Maths, etc.

I do feel that the way that the new courses for Nat5,4,3 etc have not been handled with the proper precautions and judgements. It upsets me how the students in our year group are constantly treated as 'guinea pigs' for new courses and exams. In my opinion, the SQA board need to make more of an effort and a better attempt in how they deal with these new courses that are a 'benefit' to our education, because they are far from a benefit. I think that they are forgetting that, the way they handle their responsibility for young students like us actually effects the rest of our lives? Tis my opinion, and although the SQA may think otherwise, it actually matters. Thank you and good day.

YES EVERYTHING YES

I dislike this new SQA national 3,4,5 etc, it means we will be the first year to do it right throughout our school life, unlike when the standard grades came in where it was a class at a time, i have heard that they will also be changing our higher and advanced higher which is not making me very happy :C

Yeah, the new system sucks

Agreed!!

The lack of sleep because of revision is affecting my forus in class because I am half asleep so study leave would give me the chance to get more and a change to revise

I'm in 5th year and its even affecting us as they are forcing it upon us which doesn't make sense as we should be doing standard grades/int1/int 2 ect. Absolute joke of a school system. Bring back standard grades.
