Cancel or make suitable adjustments to the 2022 GCSEs.
I believe that there are two options:
• The 2022 GCSEs should be cancelled.
• Suitable adjustments should be made to the exams to ensure that students are sitting a fair test. For example, some topics could be removed.
The current year 10 students missed half of year 9, are now missing 1/6 of year 10 + isolation and there is no guarantee of how things will be in future.
While at home, students couldn’t cover as much content as they would have been able to in a classroom.
Some students did not have and still don’t access to online learning as recently pointed out by the government themselves.
Not all students have had live lessons.
We should not be punished for something that’s out of our control.
