Allow time change for Muslim students to attend their Friday prayers

The Issue

Allow time change for Muslim students to attend their Friday prayers

The friday prayer in the Muslim faith is an obligatory prayer for all Muslims and missing a Friday prayer has serious implications. In this light, many Muslim students face problems when their IGCSE and A Level exam times which clash with the Friday prayer and as such we ask that the CIE and EDEXCEL board permit and arrange for Muslim students to be able to attend their prayers. 

I, as a student, hope that our requests will be addressed, as it affects thousands of Muslims who sit their exams annually.
