Cancel BTEC summer exams

What the petition asks
A-Level and GCSE exams have been cancelled for the full year, but nothing has been said about BTEC's summer exams. The students are equal, therefore should be treated the same.
Pearsons took too long to respond about the January exams, and then decided to leave the decision up to the College's taking them, and this is unfair. This meant that, although most of the country weren't sitting exams, some still had too, and this caused anxiety and stress about their future grades and any chances of applying for Universities, apprenticeships and jobs.
