Buggering around with exam grades is grossly UNFAIR. I have students who could handle PROPER exams and get their A or A* grades, but their hard-earned results will now be devalued. What's even remotely fair about that?

A-level results for this and the previous two years are now heavily stigmatised. No sensible, honest person takes them seriously. The fact of the matter is that covid-19 posed a negligible threat to almost all students and most of their teachers. Schools, and exams, should have carried on as normal: no ifs, no buts, no maybes.

Too much time drawing rainbows and teaching Woke idealogy and transgenderism than basic Maths and English.

A levels and GCSE's outside university is absolutely useless.
