Base 2021 GCSE and A-Level Grades on Teacher Considerations and Mock Grades

Closed 2,205 signatures

What the petition asks

Remove final exams for GCSE’s and A-Levels being taken in May-June 2021 for Y11s and Y13s. Base the final grades of all students on a collection of information in conjunction with teachers considerations and opinions.
Students have been out of education for a prolonged period of time and have missed out on crucial learning which has been detrimental to their progress. It is unjust to test to students who have been greatly affected by the virus and it’s limitations.
