NI Schools top League Tables, but is it the Pupils who Lose out?

NI Schools regularly top league tables, tables based solely on exam percentages. But percentage tables can be abused, and why are universities reviewed so differently to schools? Why focusing on exams can leave pupils in a poorer position. What about children's mental health, physical activity, career path and choice?
