Petition Action

Stop the 33% downgrade of GCSE and A level results

Petition Details

The system is favouring private schools over state schools. If the average gcse grade in a school is a c in maths and someone works to get a level 8 why should their hard work be hindered because of an unjust average which is completely inaccurate.

Additional Information

Students all over the country will be affected who have gone to state schools and colleges. The fact exam boards don’t have enough trust in teacher judgment to be accurate and fair, isn’t the fault of their students. The plan should’ve been better thought out! For students who did well and worked for their mocks and for students who still needed that extra two months of revision it’s: unfair, unjust and desponding
