Cancel BTEC January 2021 exams
I would like the Government to cancel the exams for BTEC students in January 2021. This is because, we already have so much coursework to do. Along with this, we didn’t get our predicted grades for exams last year like A level students did, which means in January some BTEC students have 6 exams!
With this current climate with COVID-19, I don’t see how it will be safe to fit all students in an exam hall as for some topics there are over 500 students sitting the same exam. Especially how the majority of cities are going into a tier 3 lockdown, I really don’t feel comfortable as a student going into an exam hall, putting myself, my family, and friends at risk for to sit an exam. Do the government not see how much pressure this adds to student’s lives as we have to be weary of our health!
