Course summary

The course provides a solid grounding in computing theory and problem solving. It consists of both theory and practical work. Some of the theory topics will have been touched upon at GCSE level, but are now significantly more advanced. In the second year, students will be required to create their own project. They will need to investigate, design, prototype, implement and evaluate a computerised solution to a problem. It is an ideal course if you are planning to do mathematics, computer science, engineering or robotics at university, it is also useful if you have ambitions to work in the games, software or programming industries.
