What the petition asks
i want the Government and Parliament to cancel the 2021 January Exams which now 135,000 students have to take place in risky situations. the Secretary of State should cancel them and give them teacher assessed grades.
This is because that 135,000 students are having to sit these exams that their counterparts in the summer do not have to do. the real fact of it is, if you have the exams online, there is no way of monitoring it. if you have students attend in person, there is a risk of transmission, the only decision to do is to allow teachers to give their results. these need to be cancelled NOW
