Petition Review and implement reforms to tackle racial disparities in educational outcome

I would like the Government to consider racial disparities in academic outcomes, which were evidenced by the flawed grading algorithm that disadvantaged many schools in low socio-economic areas, and implement reforms to tackle these.

More details

ONS statistics show that academic progress from age 11 to 16 varies significantly by race. In 2011, the Government found that black students had the lowest predicted grade accuracy at 39.1%

BAME students have to prove themselves in their final exam, because of this bias and inequality that appears in the education system. The Government must establish why these racial disparities occur, and implement reforms to ensure that students of all races have equal opportunities for academic success.
