Petition Action

Revert the changes of early exams due to 'Ramadan'

Petition Details

With just 5.02% of UK population being Muslim altering exam times is completely unjustified. Why should 95% of students have less time to revise for exams because of the 5%. As a Christian country too, I find this ridiculous.

Additional Information

Please sign to revert the changes in exam timetables that are unfair and biased towards the Muslim community.
