Offer university students minimum of a pass for the year 20/21 due to Covid-19
The government should allow university students to have a minimum of a pass for the academic year 20/21
Many universities have faced technical issues, as well as the students feeling ignored or pushed aside by the government during the pandemic. It has caused a great impact to students' mental health, and many students have been unable to access their courses, and online learning has caused students to suffer in their grades.

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
