Exams should be held during the summer holidays due to closure of schools
The Issue
Many high school senior students from S4 to S6 are meant to sit their exams in May, however due to the announcements that schools are going to be closed down exams are now most likely not to happen. This affects most students because the SQA may use predicted grades which practically ruin the students plans and create problems for them for example applying to university or college. Many students have failed their preliminary exams and don’t have a chance, this could really create a huge impact on their future which is not looking very good. Students who are probably planning to leave school before S6 may not be able to leave because of the predicted grades. Students being able to do their exams during summer is better than not doing any exams at all
