The exams were made public this month by Pepe, who noted that they were riddled with spelling, grammar and factual errors.

The gaffes ranged from misspellings of words such as “truning around” and “For God’s skae,” to confusing instructions, to a page that read “This is the end of the Test” when there were actually two more pages.

Pepe said she was alerted to the sloppy tests by teachers, and has since received a strong response from parents who wanted to know how the mistakes could have happened.

“This is about accountability,” Pepe said, after Ingram had taken the blame for the incident during the meeting. “The superintendent didn’t make these mistakes, but we still don’t know who did.”
