CHANGE EXAM BOARD RULES FOR DISABLED LEARNERS

Petition Details

Stop penalising the disabled learners who require the use of a scribe for GCSE English exams.

Additional Information

Stop asking learners who require assistance to write exam answers using a scribe to dictate every spelling. I mean how long do you think spelling THE CAT SAT ON THE MAT would take if dictated letter for letter?

What about people with speech impediments? That would take extra time.

Ask people to spell more complicated words to the scribe...
