Petition Fund free resits to allow 2020 A-Level/GCSE students to retake all exams once
Fund free resits for A-Level & GCSE students whose results were decided by Centre Assessed Grades in summer 2020, so that they can retake their respective exams once, in the Autumn 2021 exam season or any other future exam season of their choosing, at no cost to themselves.
More details
Many A Level/GCSE students whose results were decided by CAGs have been unable to progress further in their education due to high resit costs. This has created a huge wealth divide in accessibility of further education. The approach to 2020 students’ grades made university places difficult to secure. The option to resit in October 2020 was on short notice and inaccessible to many students. These students now have to pay to resit their exams, and for tutoring to achieve well in said exams.
