Petition Action

an option for students to replace their results to those in their first year

Petition Details

Let students have the choice to decide that the results they got in the first year can count towards their degree rather than the academic year they are taking now without the same support.

Additional Information

COVID-19 has made it a bad time for students to teach themselves a degree which is adequate to represent their ability. Some have struggled terribly during this time and subsequently their results reflect this in addition to poor communication with students and lack of support. The lack of guidance from peers, group sessions and problem classes have been stopped which were vital to giving a better understanding of curriculum

This petition was rejected

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
