Dillon, 15, said: “We ve got GCSEs coming up so going back virtually has put a lot more pressure onto us, students need to do better than they ever would in class, because that s probably how they re going to be assessed.”
It was announced in January all GCSE and A-Levels exams would be cancelled and students’ grades will be based on teachers assessment of their standard.
Dillion said that online learning has vastly improved since the first lockdown and has provided more technological ways to learn.

A weather warning for snow and ice, which has been in force for much of the week, is expected to last until midnight (Friday, December 8, 2021).
While there is no weather warning in place for Saturday, temperatures are expected to dip below freezing in many part of the county through Friday night and into Saturday morning.
Primary schools were forced to close on Tuesday as part of the national lockdown restriction imposed by the Government, only remaining open for key workers and vulnerable pupils.
