Award A level students in England exam marks predicted by their tutors.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Revoke the use of the standardisation algorithm and use the marks awarded by teachers as has been agreed in Scotland.
Thousands of students have had their life chances damaged by downgraded results which will affect them throughout their careers.

I would like the Government or Parliament to accept the tutors predictive assessments, to allow students who have been downgraded to proceed with their future plans.

Why it was rejected

The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.

Since you started your petition the Government has announced that GCSE and A-level students will receive their centre assessment grades: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/gcse-and-a-level-students-to-receive-centre-assessment-grades

Prior to this announcement being made, we had published the following petitions, calling for similar actions to your request:

Reverse all exam grades back to teacher’s own predictions: Reverse all exam grades back to teacher’s own predictions

Review the decision to use previous data to calculate exam grades: Review the decision to use previous data to calculate exam grades
