Summer 2021 Adaptations Update:
Summary of assessment sheets have been removed from this page as these adaptations were published prior to the Welsh Government’s announcement that there will be no summer exams for GCSE, AS and A level qualifications. The Design and Delivery Advisory Group is in the process of developing proposals on how externally set and marked assessments will be structured in 2021.

Our GCSE Computer Science specification enables centres to concentrate on innovative delivery by having a streamlined, uncomplicated, future proof structure, with realistic technological requirements.
The specification provides learners with an understanding of the fundamental concepts of computer science and a broad range of study opportunities. It also gives learners an opportunity to produce extended written responses and demonstrate the quality of their written communication, including appropriate use of punctuation and grammar.
