I don't get this cheating comment. Schools have internal exams sure, but they don't count for much - the ones that count (at high school) are GCSEs, A-Levels, and other external exams. Teachers can't cheat on these as they don't have the tests until it opens. If the actual exams were happening in the way the author depicts, then 1) There would be a whistleblower 2) The people marking the exams would notice that people were getting the exact same answers (unlike US SATs, UK exams are mainly written answers, very few questions are multiple choice) Now teachers do have copies of previous years exams, and go over those in class, and use them for mock-exams earlier in the year, isn't that normal? It's not cheating -- exams are an imperfect system, but if you're going to have exams, having test exams and going over what worked and what didn't is valid.
