Rejected petition By means of Committee hearings and Policy Shift revise A Level 2021 examinations

By the use of committees, hearings and debates revise, review and change policy to accomodate for the disadvantages year 12 students are currently facing going into year 13. Reduce content exams next year and or confirm predicted grades at minimum for both A Level and BTEC.

More details

Year 12 students this year due to the Coronavirus Pandemic have missed almost a third of a years study. Some colleges have been proactive with the situation and others not active at all with the previous uncertainty. With grade inflations and universities asking students that have already recieved their a level results to reapply next year it puts us at a signficant unfair disadvantage when applying to university this year. There are aproximately 574,000 students sitting A levels -OFSTED report
