Rejected petition Push back the Autumn exams for A-levels to February.

We know many people were done extremely wrong with the grades awarded to them. They are in shock, and most wouldn’t have expected it. To be honest a lot of people probably haven’t done enough work for exams to be around November, so they should be pushed back.

This has affected me, as my whole career has come to a sudden halt. I feel like this is something that will help students get back on track.
