Closed petition: Review the amount of written exams for GCSEs
Closed on
We want the Government to consider reducing the amount of written exams a student should have to take during GCSEs
Research suggests 63% of pupils struggle with exams due to mental health issues. A normal student takes around 18-25 exams during GCSEs. We think it should be reduced to relieve stress for students and to not put as much pressure on pupils.
