The emphasis of the course is on computer science and computational thinking. This way of thinking involves abstraction and decomposition; the study of the real world and deciding on what can be computed and how that computing can be achieved in hardware and software. The course is introduced by learning the various stages of problem solving, using logic to determine outcomes and finally achieving solutions using the most appropriate programming language for the task. Along the way we study machine architecture, programming, concepts, communications and networking. The course will demand the use of the up-to-date programming languages; both procedural and object-oriented. Pupils will have the opportunity to develop in different languages.
