Has anyone who went to secondary school from 1995 onwards ever been asked to supply their National Record of Achievement at a job interview?
I'm just thinking that this has never happened, despite frequent warnings from teachers.
I feel that since they lied to me about this, what else did they lie about. I'll not be able to trust anything they said. My entire secondary education experience was a lie...

Me neither. Everything worth looking at is on my CV, all my certificates are somewhere safe where I can get them out at a minutes notice.
noone asked for it
Teachers tell lies all the time. My two best friends are primary school teachers and they can't even spell. It's worrying.
After college I decided that I wanted to do an Accounting Apprenticeship and the training company I applied to asked to see my record of achievement.
When I went for job interviews after that, I was never specifically asked to bring my ROA, but I took it anyway and let the interviewer look at it just to impress them lol.
Tbh, nobody is ever going to tell you to bring it, but I'd take it anyway, just to show the interviewer your achievements, it can really swing the job for you
I doubt they had enough sheets of paper for all your academic achievements ..
Also I have found it useful in preparing applications and my first CV etc but I've not used it for years now, I think it may be in the garage at my mother's house in a box somewhere.
I don't think I was ever told that I would need it though.
