Rejected petition Stop GCSE summer exams 2022. YES for ‘Centre Determined Grades’.

The current Yr11 pupils began their GCSE’s in Yr9, summer term 2019 during the start of the C-19 pandemic. Certainly the most effected year group, as they have endured half of their GCSE years learning via online learning, with added stress effecting well-being in these uncertain times.

More details

At present, Yr11 pupils continue the additional workload to complete assessments incase of ‘Centre Determined Grades’, as well as the usual GCSE workload & continuing to prepare for summer exams!
Also, there are concerns with regards to upping the grading levels within the marking system, to make it ‘more difficult’ to achieve grades - extremely unfair under the circumstances. This is having a detrimental effect on pupils health & well-being.

Stop SummerExams2022!
YES to CentreDetermineGrades
