A Level Computing

The Computing course we follow was introduced by OCR in September 2008.

The aim of the course is to develop an understanding of the organisation of a computer system (including hardware, software, data, communications and people), the greater consequences of using computers (including social, legal and ethical issues) and to be able to apply the understanding and knowledge to solve a range of problems through discussion, reports, programming and using existing software.

In total there are 4 units: 2 at AS and 2 at A2.
