This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Since you started your petition the Government has announced that primary schools, secondary schools and colleges across England must move to remote provision from 5 January 2021, except for vulnerable children and the children of key workers.

The Prime Minister has also said that this will mean it is not possible or fair for all exams to go ahead this summer as normal, and that the Government will work with Ofqual to put in place alternative arrangements. We have published the following petitions, which you might like to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/326066
