Computer science consists of computer systems, algorithms and programming including a programming project. You will develop problem-solving skills by applying the knowledge and understanding encountered. Component 1 contains the majority of the content of the specification and is assessed in a written paper recalling knowledge and understanding. Lessons are both theoretical and practical with elements of group work. Component 2 relates principally to problem solving skills needed by learners to apply the knowledge and understanding encountered in Component 1. Programming project component 3 is a practical portfolio based assessment with a task that is chosen by the teacher or learner and is produced in an appropriate programming language
