Encourage universities to implement a safety net policy once again this academic year due to the coronavirus pandemic and the vast amount of education being received online.

More details

It is important for students to receive the grades they deserve. Students are now at a disadvantage with libraries being closed or limited, especially those who do not respond well to online learning. Some students may also be disadvantaged as the majority of exams are no longer taking place and they must rely on coursework.
