Stop the 33% downgrade of 2020 A Level and gcse results
We call on Boris Johnson to intervene now and stop this. No school is going to set a child up for something they cannot achieve, that would be senseless. The Government Dept responsible for this has decided in their wisdom to reduce those grades by up to 33%
A-level and GCSE results will be handed out in August this year on the normal date expected, with results based on work so far, mock exam results, teacher assessments and other factors. Genuine A* students with top university offers face not getting their firmed place, this is the rest of their lives being played with like they are pawns in the government’s game. This is the life they have worked hard for and deserve. Uni places already hang in the balance.
