Petition Action

All pupils to repeat this current academic year.

Petition Details

All pupils have had inconsistent education since March 2020. During the autumn term, some pupils were forced to isolate, some schools closed & now there is a delay to the spring term. If they all repeated the year from Sept 2021, they would be in a much better position for future learning.

Additional Information

All year groups just start again in September 2021 eg Year 6 stay in year 6 instead of moving to Year 7 etc. This would mean that pupils due to start in Reception 2021 would have to wait until 2022 etc. Yes, all future pupils will be starting a year later but I think we actually start our pupils in school too early anyway.

The only issue is there will be a gap in pupils going to University but there must be some on a gap year ready to start.
