GCSE English Paper - "INAPPROPRIATE"

The AQA Examination Board Specimen paper for English this week used what many in the armed forces would consider to be an inappropriate extract. The extract used was taken from a book by Asne Seierstad entitled 'The Bookseller of Kabul'. One headteacher fortunately stepped in at her own school and prevented a child whose father had been killed in Afghanistan last year from sitting the paper... Your comments please!...
