We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for. Decisions about the content of exams are a matter for individual exam boards, not the UK Government or Parliament.

Background
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 The current spec is incredibly outdated still using 10 year old information.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.
