Rejected petition Ensure that no Ebacc exams are on the same day to give students the best chance.

In this summer's exam schedule, there are a number of days where high profile subjects are on the same day, which increases pressure on schools and students as these are subjects that must be acquired due to the progress 8 measure. My recommendation is that no two Ebacc exams are on the same day.
