Computer Science
Computer Science is a dynamic subject that combines problem-solving, computational thinking, and creativity. Our curriculum enables students to explore how technology works and how it shapes the world around them, while also developing practical digital skills for the future.
Key Stage 3
At Key Stage 3, students build a strong foundation in digital literacy, online safety, and programming. Through engaging and practical lessons, they become confident, responsible users of technology. As they progress, students begin to explore key computing concepts such as computer systems, programming languages, app development, and an introduction to cyber security.
Key Stage 4
In Key Stage 4, students deepen their understanding of computer science through the Edexcel GCSE in Computer Science. They explore core areas including algorithms, data representation, computer systems, networks, cyber security, and the ethical impact of technology. Students also continue to strengthen their programming skills through practical coding tasks using Python.
This pathway prepares students for further study in computing-related fields and opens the door to a wide range of future careers in technology and beyond.
