Update our Education System
From speaking to various individuals in A-Levels and GCSE's, we feel as a group that we are being put at a disadvantage and being set up to fail. The new A-Level and GCSE reforms are unfit for purpose and the overwhelming amount of content and exams that we are being put through needs reform.
Students in the UK are amongst the most tested in the world, yet are failing on their academic skills and subjects. The previous solution to this was to make GCSE' s and A Levels harder to obtain and increasing exam pressure. This has had the opposite effect and is becoming detrimental to our state of mental health and well being. 2018 is said to be the most stressful year in terms of exams and teenage mental health has been reported to decline as a result.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you're concerned about the education system and its effects on young people, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
