Rejected petition Reduce the content of A-levels for next years exams

Reducing the A-level content for next years exams would relieve a huge amount of pressure for current Year 12 students. We have missed a considerable amount of school and it is unreasonable to expect us to take exams normally under these circumstances.

More details

Whilst this may be something that Parliament would consider next year, I want to urge them to take action now, to prevent an unnecessary amount overwhelming stress for current Year 12 students.
