What the petition asks
GCSE students can suffer from burnout and stress from the GCSE system. We want all state schools and academies to be required to provide mental health services to GCSE students.
Some studies have suggested 80% of young people reported academic pressure contributed to mental health difficulties.
We feel it is imperative that all state schools and academies are required to provide mental health services to all GCSE students.
