As part of all specifications across GCSE and A-Level you are required to understand standard theoretical and practical

GCSE

BBC Bitesize – Computer Science

The BBC has always provided content for GCSE students. This new platform shows content based on Exam board.

Ada Computer Science

Ada Computer Science is developed and maintained in conjunction with the Raspberry Pi Foundation and Cambridge University Press.

This platform enables Teachers and Students to develop their knowledge of Computer Science topics at both GCSE and A-Level.

This has appropriate modules for GCSE and A-Level, students studying OCR Computer Science qualifications would benefit from this.

A-Level

Isaac Computer Science

This is the official NCCE website for A-Level content to cover both OCR, Edexcel and AQA courses.

This platform enables your teacher to set custom playlists and tests based on the content covered in class.

This also has some transition modules for GCSE students looking to move into A-Level Computer Science.
