Ahahaha...
Marks will be docked for poor spelling, punctuation and grammer in GSCE exams, under new rules.
My underline.
On the broader point, this is not a good move, because its intention is not what it appears to be.
I applaud the idea of teaching grammar, punctuation and spelling; but that isn't the intention. The intention is to roll back the education system, because the Tories would rather teach Imperial history than anything dealing with its consequences. Watch: they will replace Chimua Achebe with Somerset Maugham. They will remove any teaching which involves critical analysis of texts, because they are beholden to the owners of the Daily Express and the Daily Mail and the Sun. Liars, thieves and fools.
Edit: This is the kind of jackass we're dealing with.
Notice that Mr Cameron is still allowing this dickhead a vote in the Lords. That is to say, he's packing the voting system with his cronies.
