Petition Action

Adjust the content that current Y12 students are expected to sit next year.

Petition Details

The exam content urgently needs to be reviewed for 2021 A-Levels across the board.

We are proposing that the A-Level curriculum be adjusted to a more reasonable level. Current Y12's only got 6 months in 6th Form's or College before schools were closed and are expected to not have been impacted.

Additional Information

Current Y12 students, myself included, have both lost valuable education in the previous six months and lost motivation to continue working at the level we have been, in all surveys conducted around 80% of students have lost motivation to do the work.

Very few schools have been giving anything remotely close to the workload or general education that we would have otherwise received in the last 6 months.
