A Level Computer Science

Course summary

A Level Computer Science helps you understand the core academic principles of computer science. Classroom learning is transferred into creating real-world systems through the creation of an independent programming project. You will develop your technical understanding and your ability to analyse and solve problems using computational thinking. You will cover the fundamentals of programming, data structures, algorithms, and object-orientated programme design. The theory will cover topics such as: the internal workings of a computer, the basics of how data is stored using binary and whether that data consists of numbers, texts, pictures, or even music.
