Request for Cancellation or Alternative Assessment for A Level May/June 2026 Exams in the Middle East

i agree w this petition

it’s unsafe and it’s hard to study in oman with constant distractions

I can’t do with bombs

This for my friend azeem Petition to Cancel the Upcoming Exams To whom it may concern, My name is a student who has been trying—really trying—to keep up, to stay strong, and to prepare for these exams. But the truth is, it hasn’t been easy. Every day feels heavier than the last, and the pressure keeps building to a point where it’s hard to even think clearly. My friend Azeem says it all the time: “I wish the exams would just cancel.” At first, it sounded like a joke. But now, it feels like the only thing that could give us a moment to breathe. This petition is not written out of laziness or lack of care. It’s written because many of us are overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, and quietly struggling. We sit in classrooms pretending we understand, pretending we’re ready, when inside, we feel lost. Exams are meant to measure what we know—but what about when stress and fear take over? What about when students can’t even show their true abilities because they’re too anxious to think? We are asking—no, we are pleading—for understanding. Canceling or postponing the exams would not just be a break from tests. It would be a chance for students like me and Azeem to regain confidence, to actually learn without fear, and to come back stronger instead of breaking under pressure. We want to do well. We care about our future. But right now, we are struggling. Please hear us. Sincerely, A student who just needs a little more time

I think its just pointless since online skl it could be replaced with a project or other work

The classroom felt heavier than usual, like the walls themselves knew what was coming. I sat there staring at my paper, my name written neatly at the top, but everything else… blank. Azeem leaned over from the next desk, his voice barely a whisper. “I wish the exams would just cancel,” he said, half-joking, half-serious. I gave a small laugh, but it didn’t reach my eyes. Deep down, I wished the same thing—but not just because I didn’t want to study. It was more than that. Every night, I tried to revise, but the words never stayed in my head. Pages blurred, numbers mixed, and sentences felt like they were written in a language I didn’t understand anymore. Everyone else seemed ready, confident, even excited. But me? I felt stuck, like I was running in place while everyone else moved forward. Azeem kept talking about how a miracle might happen—a sudden announcement, a message saying the exams were canceled. He smiled as he imagined it, like it would fix everything. I wanted to believe him. I really did. But I knew better. Because even if the exams disappeared, the feeling wouldn’t. That weight in my chest, the fear of not being good enough, the quiet disappointment I felt in myself—it would all still be there. The teacher walked in, and the room fell silent. Papers were handed out, one by one. When mine reached my desk, my hands felt cold. I looked at Azeem. He gave me a small nod, like we were in this together. But somehow, I still felt alone. I picked up my pen, staring at the first question. My mind went blank again. Around me, the scratching of pens filled the room, everyone moving ahead while I stayed frozen. And in that moment, I realized something. It wasn’t just the exams I wanted to disappear. It was the fear.

yes i cant

This is for our safety and stability, and to ensure we get the best possible outcome when going off to university.

There are explosions over my head every few hours i cannot prepare for exams under these conditions
