The problem is  the pdf/a validator ... it's better to use that one the
counterpart .
An important one  is the preflight of  acrobat professional. If it says
that it's ok , then "it's hard to assert that it's not ok"  .
Also this one maybe can help:
http://www.pdf-tools.com/pdf/validate-pdfa-online.aspx
but privacy can be an issue.

Imho, a school (or whatever educational structure)  that require a pdf/a
should also offer a service to validate a pdf, and a report if validation
fails.
