Rejected petition Make AQA exam board apologize for the B1 2016 paper including irrelevant content

The AQA B1 2016 June paper questions involved had very little to do with the syllabus originally taught. Irrelevant questions surrounding "drunk 15yr olds" and "independent companies".
AQA should issue an apology for this completely irrelevant content.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

We cannot accept your petition because the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for the issue you raise. Exam boards are independent of Government and Parliament. They are regulated by the Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation (Ofqual), which regulates qualifications, examinations and assessments in England.

You can make a complaint to Ofqual about the organisations it regulates, including complaining about grade boundaries set by individual exam boards. Further information about how to complain is available here: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/ofqual/about/complaints-procedure.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
