Give clear plans to first year college students about their futures
First year college students / year 12 need clear plans on what will happen to us. We would’ve missed half a year worth of learning but we have no idea on how this will affect UCAS applications or future grades.
Year 12/first year college students have been given no information whatsoever about what will happen to our UCAS applications, end of year exams or a level exams. We just need some information to give us peace of mind and to help us prepare for what is to come. We feel like the government has ignored us and are worried about our futures.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
Decisions about qualifications, examinations and assessments in England are a matter for Ofqual, 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:
