A Level pathways are designed to prepare you for higher education and beyond, be it a degree, research or a wide range of careers. In year one you will study the AS specification and take exams in May/June. If successful, you will progress to year two and complete the full A-level.
This course will enable learners to develop a broad range of skills in the areas of programming, system development, computer architecture, data, communication and applications.
Success in this course is exceptional and in the last national exams, 100% of Computer Science students passed this course.
You will be expected to take this subject alongside another two A Levels. Computer Science goes well with subjects such as maths, physics and business. You will also be expected to complete a work placement as part of your programme of study. Study skills and employability skills will be developed with the help of your personal tutor.
You will need 5 GCSEs in curriculum subjects at grades 4 or above, to include maths at grade 5 or above.
20 hours of work permit weekly for international students.
