AS and A Level Computer Science qualifications will inspire and challenge students to apply the knowledge they gain with the creative and technical skills they acquire. Here are some of the key benefits of our new Computer Science specifications for you and your students: The new qualifications will be focused on programming, will build on the GCSE Computing and emphasise the importance of computational thinking as a discipline. There'll be an expanded maths focus. The ICT content of the new specifications will be appropriate to a Computer Science qualification. Computational thinking will be at the core of the new specifications. The AS will consist of two components, which will be externally assessed and weighted at 50% each.* The A Level will consist of three components, two of which will be externally marked question papers making up 80% of the qualification. The other 20% will be the coursework project, which will retain its current qualities but will be more focused, with a greater emphasis on coding and programming with a simple assessment model and marking criteria.
