Give students who miss exams due to illness a right to Centre Assessed Grades

Petition Details

Where a student is unable to sit their exams because of illness, they should have the right to a Centre Assessed Grade, so that they do not miss out on getting a qualification. This is particularly important for GCSE and A Level students.

Additional Information

There are arrangements for exam boards to make special arrangements for students affected by illness, injury, or other events outside of their control, but we do not think these go far enough.

During the pandemic Centre Assessed Grades were used to give students grades based on their previous work, so there is already an established process for granting grades where it is not possible for a student to sit exams.
