Closed petition GCSEs should be scrapped

Closed on 3 April 2024

Our exam system is out of date compared to the world's evolution. Students are not being taught the necessary skills to keep up with the revolution that is happening across the world.

GSCEs also can cause a lot of stress and anxiety to many young people. Too much pressure can lead to failure on their exams! Kids should not be judged by grades going into an interview and colleges etc, as it doesn’t show the real person they are, for example their interaction and communication skills, their teamwork skills, and most of all their self-management. Grades should not define a person.
