Parliament should ensure fair access to exam centres, clear GCSE arrangements, and equal treatment so home-educated learners are not disadvantaged compared to school students.","additional_details":"Home-educated students face high GCSE exam fees and limited access to exam centres, while school students take exams with no extra cost.
