The aim of the IT department is to inspire our students with a love of learning and to equip them with knowledge and to develop skills that stand the test of time. We aim to give learners the opportunity to develop their knowledge and skills in various IT systems, web design, and database software development. This will enable them to progress to further study in the IT sector or other industry related sectors. The IT Department offers the BTEC National Extended Certificate qualification equivalent to one A level. Learners cover a wide range of various specialist IT subject areas including computer hardware and software, computer networks, emerging technologies, computer security and legislation, uses and impact of IT systems in organizations, website design and database development. Assessment allows learners to build on their skills needed for Higher Education and includes written examinations, controlled assessments (in which a pre-release material is studied in advance) as well as internal assignments. Core units for this course include: Unit 1: Information Technology Systems Unit 2: Creating Systems to Manage Information (Databases) Unit 3: Using Social Media in Business Unit 6: Website Development The BTEC Level 3 National Extended Certificate in Information Technology is intended as an Applied General qualification covering 360 GLH and equivalent in size to one A Level. It is designed for learners who are interested in an introduction to the study of creating IT systems to manage and share information alongside other fields of study, with a view to progressing to a wide range of higher education courses, not necessarily in IT. Learners will develop a common core of IT knowledge and study areas such as the relationship between hardware and software that form an IT system, managing and processing data to support business and using IT to communicate and share information. The objective of this qualification is to give learners the opportunity to develop their knowledge and skills in IT systems, database systems management, and web development. This will enable learners to progress to further study in the IT sector or other sectors and allow progression to a variety of degrees when combined with other suitable Level 3 qualifications.
