The main purpose of this petition, is to have final exams conducted fully online for grades 9 and 11 in DPS Sharjah for the academic year 2020-21. The COVID-19 is a major risk and threat to the students and however strong the precautionary measures may be, there is always the risk of infection and we believe that it's much better to keep the safety of the students first.
Additionally, the new strain of COVID-19 which recently caused the ban of flights to and from the UK, is a kuch more serious threat due to it's increased transmission rate and we think it's in the best interest of the students, teachers and parents to have the final exams conducted fully online for classes 9 & 11 for the academic year 2020-21.
