Lower the grade boundaries for high school students sitting GCSE'S this summer.

What the petition asks
It is obvious that they Grade boundaries may become higher this year. However we must remember that these kids were affected by Covid 19 as well.
With all the strikes that have occurred and still are occurring within the education department it has majorly disrupted the learning of the current year 11's. Some have been told to take days off, or lessons are being covered by unqualified cover teachers. Why should students have to suffer because teachers aren't being payed enough. It is just not fair.
