Rejected petition Compel the government to cancel 2016 Key Stage One SATs and formal TAs

The SATs introduced this year are poorly implemented and designed. Last minute changes and requirements increase workload and stress.Expectations are unfair and unrealistic for most 6/7 year olds. Children, schools and teachers will be labelled as failures and their futures put at risk.
