Reduce the content of A-Levels
Rejected

What the petition asks
Reduce the curriculum and announce what could be taken out of the courses - it’s unfair how much we’ve missed, often with no contact from schools, but having to do the whole course in reduced time.
I think that postponing exams is not as helpful since we’ve missed a lot more than 3 weeks - many students have not been contacted by the teachers throughout lockdown. Cancelling them completely could lead to similar complications as last year, whereas reducing the content seems like a fair way to do it.
Why it was rejected
