Reverse the decision to unfairly downgrade 2020 A Level Results

Petition Details

The government should reverse the decision to downgrade around 35% of grades given out on A Level results day 2020, as the system used to determine these grades is unfair and unjust to this cohort of students.

Additional Information

The way the government, in particular Gavin Williamson, have handled the 2020 A Level results is shocking and unfair on the thousands of students that have worked tirelessly to achieve, only for an unjust algorithm to take away opportunities for this cohort of students.
