Cancel any external mini exams you plan to hold for alevel and GCSE students
Cancel the proposal that you will give external mini exams for Alevel and GCSE students and put your trust in teachers instead and allow them to give us calculated grades using material they deem suitable.
The loss of learning time cannot be made up for with online lessons and will result in us being unprepared for ‘smaller external exams’. Many students don’t have full access to all the resources needed for online school so their true performance and ability will not be reflected.Increased feelings of stress,anxiety and depression have really damaged our mental health and the idea of sitting any kind of external exams will put an even bigger strain on our well-being.
