This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

We understand you're concerned the use of tests to help determine teacher-awarded grades may put students under additional pressure, but we're not sure what you want the Government to do about this. The decision on whether to use tests and the role they will play in informing teacher-awarded grades is an operational matter for individual schools.
