Parents of Cambridge have said that retakes are not acceptable at all. The parents and students demand revised grades which will eventually be the solution to all the problems.
Parents in a statement said they have requested Cambridge to schedule the 9-11 May cancelled exams at a later date but they refused.
They complained that Cambridge failed the students in Pakistan by what they called the “unjust grading and assessed grades”.
They disagreed with the suggestion the students sit for retakes. “Why didn’t they listen to the parents earlier when they requested to reschedule the cancelled exams,” they asked. Parents pointed out that the government has proposed the schools to pay 80 percent for the rechecks to which they are not agreeing. “Nearly 45000 Pakistani students have been affected by the unjust grading by Cambridge,” a parent said. The exams components that were cancelled have been marked Us and Es and those not cancelled have been marked the same way too, she said.
