Rejected petition Update the WJEC Computer Science AS/A Level

Update the WJEC Computer Science AS/A Level spec to match current standards and technologies like the AQA exam.

More details

The last time the WJEC Computer Science AS/A Level was updated was 10 years ago, in September of 2015. The current spec is incredibly outdated still using 10 year old information. It is in the nature of the subject that the technology evolves quickly and the subject specifications should match that change. The current spec was made when the Iphone 6 was still considered the forefront of technological advancement and Windows 10 was brand new.
