At Key Stage 3 we cover the computing national curriculum which involves students studying three sequenced units incorporating IT, Computer Science, and the Impact of Technology. These units develop the skills and knowledge that students need to underpin their learning at KS4. Students receive a broad and balanced curriculum covering the fundamentals of how computer science, IT and business function in real world situations.
