About AQA

AQA (Assessment and Qualifications Alliance) is an independent education charity and the largest provider of academic qualifications taught in UK schools. AQA GCSEs are regulated by Ofqual and follow the national subject content requirements set by the Department for Education. AQA sets its own exam papers and marking schemes, and grade boundaries are determined after all scripts have been marked using a process called "comparable outcomes."
