Computing at WGS (Boys)
Computing is an engineering discipline, and as a result, students who succeed in this subject must have a good Science and Maths background.
The A Level Computing course covers machine architecture and structure and role of the processor, as well as a wide range of programming languages from assembly language to high level languages such as object orientated programming using Pascal. It also covers data representation in binary, denary and hexadecimal.
The candidates will be required to have a wide-ranging understanding of computers and computer technology before starting the course. It will be expected that the students will read widely about the subject during the course, and keep up-to-date with changes within the subject and industrial developments.
Note: Many Universities, which offer computer science degrees, also require A Level Mathematics for entry to the course.
