Rejected petition Cancel the 2021 A-level exams!

On behalf of myself and my peers we implore the government to cancel the 2021 A-level exams with immediate effect. I suggest that with exams cancelled, the government give the grades to students based on their coursework and end of topic tests completed after the announcement.

More details

By announcing the cancellation of the 2021 exams now, the government can rid the students from the incessant impotence in the face of a looming disaster. Leaving it to the last minute to announce the cancellation of exams would be catastrophic, as many students would face the same disaster as experienced by the previous A-level students. It is the ONLY way that students from all socio-economic backgrounds can have a fair chance of receiving the grades they truly deserve.
