Closed Cancel Vocational Exams NOW

Closed on

Hundreds of thousands of students are slated to take BTEC and other vocational and technical examinations in early January - in the middle of a global pandemic. It's absolutely absurd. The notion that this is even happening to vocational and technical students is absurd - delay or cancel them now!

BTEC, Vocational and Technical students have been left in the dark since the start of this crisis - A-Level and GCSE students have been given requisite ways to make up for lost time with BTEC students consistently being left out of government planning - we need clear plans as to how BTEC students will be placed on the same level playing field as GCSE and A-Level students and we need them as soon as possible so that teachers and students know exactly where they stand.
