Rejected petition Make the English 9-1 GCSEs an open book GCSE with poems and plays as materials.

For the new English GCSEs we need to remember 18 poems and 3 plays. This includes remembering the analysis and context of each poem and remembering what scenes certain quotes come from from each play. This is too much to remember when you include remembering math formulas and science information.
