Hi jaydah- there was another thread on AB an hour or so ago which covered this pretty thoroughly so you may not get too many responses.

Their only going to cut 5% of the mark. Soe it won't make much difference.
my son got a B in English GCSE this year and his spelling is shocking! Mixing the wrong their/there and we're/were etc. When I voiced my concerns to his school, they said 'oh don't worry about that - he won't be marked on his spelling'!
i thought it was disgusting! I hope it does change!

I think sandyRoe was joking, jaydah. If you look on the other thread quite a few posters have done the same.
Oh wow! This is one of my pet moans. It is all over the place, especially not knowing when to use "Me" and "I" and the difference between few, fewer and less, lesser. These grammatical errors are on the radio and television all the time and the presenters ought to know better,
