Re-evaluate the A level gradings

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Many of us have been robbed of opportunity due to the laziness at OFQUAL. I was awarded my last mock results without any regards to my centre grades and other recently sat mocks. This is not a true reflection of my capabilities and I know that there are many others in the same situation.

For the 2020 A-level results many students were down graded or given their latest mock results without any other consideration for centre assessments or other mock assessments to give a fair and balanced grade; impacting our future choices and decisions.

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
