Scrap the new '9-1' system for exams!

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

As we all know, GCSE's and A Level's are getting even tougher thanks to the new '9-1' system. A Level content is being put in GCSE exams and this makes life tougher for students in year 11 and below. Sign this petition so the Government wakes up and takes action.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

The GCSE curriculum should be changed back to the previous curriculum.
