Course summary

A Level Computer Science follows the AQA syllabus. This course helps girls to understand the core academic principles of computer science. Classroom learning leads to creating real-world systems through the development of an independent programming project. Girls also develop their technical understanding and their ability to analyse and solve problems using computational thinking. In the Sixth Form, all girls are given the opportunity to take a Computer Technology course in which they receive support for pursuits such as web or app design, programming, advanced spreadsheets, CAD (computer-aided design) and 3D printing. This programme is designed to support pupils who want to increase their knowledge and understanding of computers, or who have interests they may want to pursue at university such as engineering, architecture, graphic design or computer science.
