Assessment

In the second year of the A Level, you will also complete a Programming Project. In this non-exam unit, you will analyse, design, develop, test, evaluate, and document a program that solves a computationally solvable problem. You will use ‘agile’ development techniques to ensure that your project is completed successfully. The teaching styles are lectures, presentations, practical lessons, coding/programming sessions, individual/paired/group reports, guided research, and self-study. For the full A Level there are two exams worth 40% each and one coursework project worth 20%.
