A-level Computer Science students will study three units of work, the first focuses on your ability to program and computational thinking, which includes procedural and object-oriented programming techniques, data structures, algorithms, abstraction, regular expressions, and the Turing Machine. Our second unit explores the theory elements of Computer Science, including data representation, hardware and software, computer architecture, networks, databases, Big Data, functional programming and the individual, social, legal and cultural issues within the subject. The final unit is the non-exam assessment where students develop their skills by creating a programmed solution in the context of solving a realistic problem or carrying out an investigation. For more information, please see the full prospectus.
