Petition Permanently Scrap Examinations for GCSEs and A Levels

During the years of lockdown due to COVID students were given Teacher Assessed Grades due to the inability to perform external exams. We believe this method should be refined and replace exams, which we believe cause unnecessary stress and are unfair.

More details

Exams cause serious stress amongst young people, and we believe they are unfair against people who are less able to remember certain information, for example due to disability or another factor such as a recent family emergency.

In summary, exams are not only high stress, but we believe are also unfair discriminatory memory tests that give certain individuals huge advantages.
