Exam stress, Artist Andrea Luka Zimmerman, 50-50 music festivals
Exam stress, what it's like to come out as gay as a member of the Christian church, gender equality at music festivals, and artist Andrea Luka Zimmerman.
When Michael Gove was Education Secretary he set out to put England's school qualifications "on a par with those in the highest performing countries in the world". His legacy: super-rigorous exams, no more coursework, and a new numbered grading system for GCSEs. Are these radical changes behind many candidates feeling extra stressed this exam season?
What is it like to come out as gay as a member of the Christian church? As the music festival season gets underway, how much gender equality can we expect on stage and behind the scenes? And artist, film maker and cultural activist Andrea Luka Zimmerman on the inspiration behind her latest project at the Whitechapel Gallery in London.
