Rejected petition cancel A- level exams 2021
Rejected on
cancel exams 2021 to make it fair for the students who have lost learning time due to Covid-19. Teacher assessed grades should be implicated to make result fair.
Students sitting exams, especially A-level exams, are under so much stress and pressure to succeed. We haven't had enough time to prepare and the 3 week push-back doesn't make up for sixth months lost. It will just cause more stress. Exams should be teacher assessed to ensure fairness and to make sure exams should be based on our overall achievements instead of a series of exams.
