Cancel GCSE and A-Level Examinations
Cancel the upcoming exams for Year 11 and Year 13 students in the summer, awarding them the predicted grades given to them by their schools
With the likely cancellation of schools, students will miss a large chunk of teacher-student revision time (and in some cases miss part of the curriculum). Going ahead with the exams will add to the stress and anxiety already felt by these students. Instead, they should be awarded their predicted grades which are given to them by teachers who know them better than any exam statistic could show.
