What the petition asks

Nearly 40% of students have been down graded from their teacher predicted grades, some by two grades. These students have been disadvantaged by the Covid situation and not aquired the grades they would
Give 2020 A level students teacher CAG predicted grades and remove the inequities of moderation.
These students have been disadvantaged by the Covid situation and not acquired the grades they deserve of would have obtained had they taken the exam.
Providing the option of reverting to mock grades is not fair as many students do not take their mocks as seriously as the real exam.
Many students have missed first and second choice uni places because of this. Students cannot start Uni and study and take exams at the same time. Haven't they been through enough?!
