You should enjoy working with computers and have plenty of programming experience. This course is suitable for students who are keen to understand how things work. The emphasis is on computational thinking, which is about developing logical skills needed to solve problems, and write code. You will need a systematic and logical approach to problem solving, together with a numerical competence. Computer Science is an exciting and challenging field and it is constantly evolving. Computer Science is a very useful subject to consider if you are interested in pursuing a career as a computer programmer, hardware engineer, network engineer, systems analyst, database administrator or webmaster to name but a few. The computing industry is constantly developing and the rate of change is increasingly rapid.

In addition to the standard sixth form entry requirements (a minimum of 5 x GCSEs at grade 4 or above from a range of subjects including English Language), students should obtain at least grade 5 in Mathematics and Computer Science.
A combination of on-screen examination, written assessment and non-exam assessment.
