I’ve been working on creating a series of workbooks for GCSE Computer Science. I used a block based structure to plan the course and therefore the workbooks I’ve attached (in files) reflect that. Block 1 - Understanding the machine Block 2 - Computer hardware and software Block 3 - Networks Block 4 - Programming Block 5 - Issues surrounding the use of computer science technology. There is a teacher version and student version. They’re very versatile, they could be used as a revision activity, good for differentiation, build on from flipped learning or a good remote learning activity - these workbooks have worked well for my students during lock-down/closures.

This is a sample section from the programming challenges booklet where there are over 100 challenges with solutions aligned with the OCR J277 Specification.

This SOW links to a full R097 lesson pack.

This is a sample of an ultimate revision guide that can be used in preparation for the Unit 1 examination for OCR GCSE Computer Science. This sample pack includes 3 topics with 3 activities each. The activities are differentiated using difficultly level. It also includes answers.

This is the sample of a comprehensive revision plan to use with your students in the run to the examination. This uses an interleaving learning strategy which will allow students to re-visit topics with regularly.

This is an assessment for just topic area 1 of R093. It comes with a full paper and mark scheme.

Good document for students to take away for revision. It shows methods on how to convert binary, denary and hex numbers with worked examples.

Here is a sample copy of an algorithm booklet I’m currently producing. It includes 12 challenges that progressively get more difficult or introduces them to something new. Attached is a set of solutions too (OCR Exam Reference and Coded answers provided) Just to give you some flexibility into whether you want them to write algorithms out, code it or both! It’s only the basics, I will update you when the rest is complete.
