Cancel GCSES and A Levels for 2022

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government should cancel GCSEs and A Levels in 2022 due to the continued disruption of Covid-19. Even though schools are being forced to go online, there is a wide range of quality of learning being given either giving unfair advantages or disadvantages to all students
For all pupils who entered into the next stage of education being it GCSEs or A Levels there has been distribution from the beginning of September due to most pupils ending up at least going into self isolation once. This has meant that learning has been given in different amounts to different students creating differ learning chances. Alongside this, with schools being forced to go online, the quality of learning will be vastly affected and the range of this quality will be astronomical.
