Special consideration for Year 12 and Year 10 on exams (A levels/ GCSE 2021)
To extend the time we have till our examination so we could study in depth due to there not being enough adequate time
We students are struggling to cope with the online work given to us. It is not the same as having a teacher physically teaching us. It gets harder and harder by the day. Some work is only understood by explanation but we don't have that, hence why I am asking to either extend our time or give further assistance measures.
An example is that, working conditions at home may vary for some students. For example having to deal with a lot of additional chores and out of school activities, I am unable to put in the exact time as I would put in at school.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Decisions about exams are a matter for exam boards and individual schools, and are not a matter for the UK Government or Parliament.
We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
Work with regulators and exam providers to clarify exam arrangements for 2021: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/312570
