Rejected petition It is wrong to change A level exams for students already started on their courses

More details

The dept of education with ofqual are scrapping January exams. However the speed of introduction means that students already embarked on their courses are affected. This is unfair and unprecendented. Changes to exam systems should be phased for new students to give time for piloting, planning, and testing mark schemes.

The rushing through of changes is uneccessary and unreasonable. It may not even be legal.
