Petition Action

Give Year 12 students greater clarity on the future.

Petition Details

Year 12 students need to need to know where they are heading. There needs to be a recognition that we can adhere to social distancing and a more open conversation with students, so we do not feel in the dark.

Additional Information

A-level students are clueless about predicted grades, exams and university. Students receive varying levels of support, and those in vocational courses are left at a loose end. At this crucial time in deciding our future, we may only get a couple of weeks of education before summer and there seems to be a failure to recognise our competency to understand the requirements of social distancing.
