Rejected petition Re-evaluate the Corona virus A level Results

Rejected on

The government have marked down thousands of students results. Student that could have got A/B in the exams have been given grade C/D. Schools have been given A levels grades that are lower then their usual average results. Unfair grades can destroy mental health and affect students futures.

The government need to re evaluate the A levels grades using the predicted grades and not the mocks. The mocks are always marked harshly and are rarely ever an accurate representation of what a student will achieve in their A levels. The government need to speak to teachers opinions and listen to them!
