Strongly agree

No, vocational or skill based qualifications should also be available

The Labour party has historically been supportive of alternative pathways for students, such as vocational or skill-based qualifications. For example, under Tony Blair's government, they introduced the 'New Labour' education policy which aimed to provide more diverse educational opportunities for students. They would likely agree with the idea that students should have the option to pursue vocational or skill-based qualifications instead of just GCSE exams.
