Rejected petition Do not judge A-Level Students Results based on their mock grades

Using mock results would be unfair and unjust for many students and shouldn’t be used as a ‘safety net’

More details

This is unfair to many students who:
-haven’t sat their mocks due to covid-19
-did mocks and underperformed due to coursework deadlines usually being around this time as well
- have done mocks but were in december/january and aren’t a fair or realistic prediction on how they’d do in may/june exams
