    My idea is simply to have exams banned during the pandemic. The problem is that whilst all students are struggling to do normal work at home exams add to this stress and worry producing poor results. As for the special needs students doing exams at all is hard enough, doing them at home makes everything worse so for the foreseeable future I believe that a ban on exams during the pandemic would be a sensible idea
