Change the format of 2021 A Levels!
There has been uproar and disappointment with this year's A Level results, demonstrating the improper response of the government to the new circumstances. This petition is purposed to highlight the disadvantages the current Year 12s are experiencing, with hopes of changes being made to our exams.
Firstly, contact teaching time is imperative in achieving good grades. Many have not had access to this, and it is undisputable that learning lesson content independently is much harder. Plus, lower income schools have been unable to provide students with sufficient levels of support over the self-teaching period, while private schools' teaching quality has remained unscathed. Finally, there has been some changes to the 2021 GCSEs, thus it is only fair to provide Year 12s with advantages too.
