Make GCSE exams consistent for every student in the UK

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Every year thousands of teenagers across the UK write GCSE exams with different exam boards. This leads to a lot of frustration as students find same qualifications easier with some exam boards than with the others. This means that currently sitting exams is more of a lottery than fair examination.
