Can anyone advise on the nearest exam board to AQA? AQA has not been around long I understand or am I wrong?

AQA has been around for 15 years. They are an amalgamation of JMB and others (approx 5 bodies). Don't know much else.

Thank you

I read that Aqa can only keep the last three years of past papers on their site. Any ideas as to where to get the older ones from please?

Syllabuses change so frequently that older papers are not much help. Schools will have copies and share them with students as and when needed.

You could try a web search if you are looking for something more specific. On the Edexcel teachers closed website there are examples of very old papers ...
