Stop the 33% downgrade of 2020 A Level and GCSE Students

Petition Details

Prevent the 33% downgrade on A Level and GCSE Students well-earned results, as they should be based on the work they have contributed and results they have achieved in mocks and other exams in the past.

Additional Information

It is unjust and detrimental to the mental health of young people that their conditional offers for sixth forms and university placements will be made to hang in the balance, discrediting their work and their efforts at the hands of a global pandemic.
