The Ultimate GCSE Computer Science Resources ™
These comprehensive resources are updated for first teaching of the new Computer Science GCSE specifications from September 2020, consisting of high quality content related directly to each specification. Available for Edexcel, OCR and AQA, the resources are also suitable for Eduqas and iGCSE as about 90% of the content is the same. Far more comprehensive than any textbook or other resources available for GCSE Computer Science, a lifetime owner licence is cheaper than a set of 15 textbooks.
This sample chapter is for Edexcel’s algorithms chapter but gives a flavour of what all chapters will be like. Feel free to try this in a couple of lessons, but please do purchase if you intend to keep using it.
See installation instructions in the root folder. There is also an installation video and other tutorials about how to use the resources at www.paullong.net/ultimateintro

GCSE CS AQA 8520 NEA (Programming Project) 2017 Similar but Different Tasks
These are ideal for practising programming tasks for any exam board including AQA, Edexcel and OCR. Your school/college will receive a complete set of similar but different tasks which cover the same skills as those required for the real NEA for AQA from 2017, including ‘coursework technique’. The “similar but different tasks” come with guidance for students on how to complete those tasks and the level of guidance will depend upon the complexity of the task. A complete set of answers to the “similar but different” tasks is provided that can be shared with students as part of AfL (Assessment for Learning) and these answers include the original working Python files used to create the answers. These resources are produced by a previous Principal Examiner and Syllabus Developer.
GCSE CS OCR J276 NEA (Programming Project) 2017 Skills Development for OCR
These are ideal for practising for programming tasks for any exam board including AQA, Edexcel and OCR. Your school/college will receive a complete set of practice tasks which cover the same skills as those required for the real NEA for OCR. These are NOT “similar but different” tasks which were not allowed by OCR’s rules at the time, but can be used to teach students all the skills necessary for the real tasks, including ‘coursework technique’. The skills guides come with guidance for students on how to complete those skills and the level of guidance will depend upon the complexity of the skill. A complete set of answers to each skill is provided that can be shared with students as part of AfL (Assessment for Learning) and these answers will include the original working files used to create the answers. These resources are produced by a previous Principal Examiner and Syllabus Developer.
