Cancel the BTEC January Exams 2021 due to COVID lockdown.

What the petition asks
Summer exams are cancelled and a national lockdown is in place from the 5/1/21. It is ridiculous to have pupils mixing and spending up to 4 hour gaps between exams together. It contradicts the lockdown, risking people’s health and education. Use mocks/classwork to provide teacher predicted grades.
We’re worse than where we started last year, let’s not make the same mistakes.
