At this current time GCSEs grade boundaries are at a massive high in terms of amount of marks we need to achieve acceptable grades to get in 6th forms. This is causing many to miss their 6th forms they needed to continue into dream careers.

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for. Decisions about grade boundaries are a matter for exam boards, OFQUAL and individual schools, and are not a matter for the UK Government or Parliament.

Background
I would like you to put a cap on how high/how much the grade boundaries can be changed as it causes worry for many. I find it imperative that small issues like these should not have to be an issue but yet it is and we need you to help solve it.
