Petition The school testing system need to change. Student choice of exam method.

I believe that the school testing systems need a serious change. The main way of testing are by exam papers, but this method of testing isn’t adaptable to everyone’s specific strengths, since you could be a mathematical genius but fail your exam papers.

More details

To fix this I believe we should include oral testing with an examiner, or if you prefer coursework, then you can do coursework while maintaining the capability of what you can get in A level. This would give students the opportunity to choose the testing method that best suits their capabilities.
We need to stop limiting the creativity of our generation. We weren't made to be programmed like machines with knowledge, then check if our knowledge was retained, then continue that cycle.
