A-Level Computer Science delves into the technical side of computing and
software development. It is designed to provide a detailed technical
understanding of theoretical, mathematical and practical aspects of
computing.
A-Level Computer Science is a two-year course. The first year has two
distinct sections. In the first section, fundamentals of software development
including programming and data structures are studied. This unit is designed to
develop your computational thinking and is assessed through a combination of
exam questions and a programming test in an on-screen exam. The second section
covers a wide range of supporting technical knowledge including different
representation and calculation of numbers, encryption, logic, system software,
networking and a section on the moral, ethical and legal consequences of the use
of computers.
This is assessed through a written exam. In the second year, the syllabus
develops your understanding of these sections further and introduces algorithms,
the idea of big data and develops your knowledge of database systems.
