Cancel ALL university exams for 2021
Students are extremely worried about their education status and there are high cases of mental health arising since we are not getting the support required from universities to be comfortable to sit the exams. It has to be fair for everyone not just GCSE and A Level.
It will help students to focus on learning the necessary aspects of their course without extreme pressure on their studies. It will allow many pupils to return home and be around their loved ones and to care for them. It will ensure students are not developing other health related illnesses during this tough time.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Decisions about university teaching, assessments and exams are a matter for individual universities, not the UK Government or Parliament.
If you have concerns about your university's arrangements for teaching and assessment you should raise these with your university or the Office for Students, which regulates the higher education sector.
We understand that the current situation is stressful for many people, including students. Student Minds, a mental health charity for students, is collating guidance and developing resources to support students experiencing stress as a result of the current situation, which you may find useful: www.studentminds.org.uk/coronavirus.html
