Description

In this unit pupils will discover computers process instructions. They will recognise the function and tools IDEs provide for developing code and start to develop Python programa which follow a sequence. Pupils will create programs which deal with input and output and make variables to store values.

As pupils begin their GCSE Computer Science course, it is vital they secure a strong understanding of the fundamental principles of programming. A clear grasp of how programs are structured and how data is managed equips pupils to tackle the increasingly complex challenges they will face. The unit concludes with a practical project, giving pupils the opportunity to bring these concepts together in a purposeful way which is an essential foundation for success in GCSE Computer Science and beyond.
