The song inspired by coronavirus exam cancellations
No Exams: the lyrics
No exams, you don’t have to put on your bed light
School days are over, no revising through the night
No exams, but your future still looks bright
Assessment using mock scores, let’s hope they get the grading right
No exams, you’ll be graded A to E
No exams, then it’s university
No exams, you’ll be graded A to E
No exams, then it’s universityÌý
We have an obligation, toÌýmake an estimation
We have to tell you there’s no appeal, have to rank against the other boys
Know how the grades are made up, that awarding bodies take upÌý
Let’s us hope their decisions end in a good way
No exams, you’ll be graded A to E
No exams, then it’s university
No exams, you’ll be graded A to E
No exams, then it’s universityÌý
No examÌýpreparation, will there beÌýsome grade inflation
Forever more you’ll be known for sure as the Covid kids of 2020
For some of you it’s high stakes
But we hope you won’t need retakes
Sadly it’s the right approach, it’s the best way
No exams, you’ll be graded A to E
No exams, then it’s university
No exams, you’ll be graded A to E
No exams, then it’s universityÌý
No exams
No exams
No exams
No exams
No exams
No exams
No exams
No exams
