GCSE/iGCSE Computer Science

Clear explanations, regular practice, and exam technique - with a strong focus on Python programming and the core theory needed for top marks. Suitable as supplementary support or as a complete teaching pathway.

Maximum class size: 10 Theory + Python practice Exam technique built-in
Included from Day 1: full lesson notes (Word/PDF), exam-style questions with worked answers, and access to past papers for the student's exam board.

How lessons run

  • Live weekly lesson: teacher-led explanations and worked examples.
  • Guided practice: short questions and longer exam-style tasks to build confidence.
  • Programming every week: Python practice aligned to GCSE/iGCSE requirements.
  • Homework: structured tasks between lessons to build consistency.
  • Feedback: focus on mark-scheme technique and exam performance.

30-week overview plan (Sept to exams)

General structure. Exact ordering is adjusted by exam board and class needs.

Weeks Main focus Typical outcomes
1-5 Programming basics (Python) + core CS fundamentals Confident code structure, debugging habits, and core terminology
6-10 Data representation + networks foundations More reliable calculations/definitions and stronger exam responses
11-15 Systems/architecture + memory/storage + security basics Higher consistency on theory questions and fewer common mistakes
16-20 Algorithms, trace tables, problem solving + programming depth Stronger algorithm answers and improved coding under time pressure
21-25 Databases / Boolean logic / advanced exam patterns (as required) Confidence on higher-mark questions and structured explanations
26-30 Revision + timed past papers Exam readiness, improved technique, speed and confidence
