Qualification Number & Syllabus:
Pearson Edexcel Level 1/Level 2 GCSE (9-1) in Computer Science (1CP2)
Why Choose?
Computing is an essential skill in the modern world, it now appears as a 4th Science and is included in the new EBacc subjects. The recognition that digital skills are fundamental to everyday life are becoming more obvious. The UK has some of the best developers, programmers, games designers and software houses in the world but those with the skills to work in these industries are becoming fewer.
