What the petition asks
The Government should fund a £400 bonus for teachers to compensate them for all the additional work they are having to do extra this year by marking externally-set exams, which many schools are using to help calculate student grades.
If teachers are receiving a bonus like this elsewhere in the UK, those in England should too.
