In this pack you will find an SMS (Student Monitoring Sheet) which provides students with a checklist on what the key learning points are for this topic. Together with some exam questions to practice, model answers and mark schemes.
The model answers are included as a separate document.
The practice paper for this topic is also included with a mark scheme which is designed to be written in pupil speak and provide students with some insight to what the examiner is looking for.
This is a FREE sample, it's worth having a look. If this is something you would like to invest in then please leave me some feedback and I can get back to you.
The full package will include extras such as:
MCQ's (Multiple Choice Quizzes) for each topic.
Full scheme of work which correlates with the resources provided.
Practice papers for each topic.
Interim exams to internally monitor students progress every half term or termly and useful at a stage where sample papers are hard to come by.
This booklet was used as an accelerated learning activity as an introduction to computational thinking and it covers:
Abstraction
Decomposition
Writing algorithms
Pathfinder algorithms.
There is an answers booklet too.
This series of workbooks will cover programming techniques which works in line with the new J277 specification. The breakdown is as follows:
CS28 – Computational methods
CS29 – Searching & Sorting algorithms
CS30 – Writing algorithms
CS31 – High-level languagres
CS32 – Basics of programming
CS33 – String manipulation
CS34 – Selection
CS35 – Counter-controlled iteration
CS36 – Condition-controlled iteration
CS37 – Subroutines
CS38 – Data Structures
CS39 – File handling
Bonus workbook on advanced programming techniques.
Each set includes a teacher and student version.
The rest will be part of a bundle.
This series of workbooks will cover networks and some other associated with it. The breakdown is as follows:

CS18 - Network hardware
CS19 - The internet (inc. Cloud storage and DNS)
CS20 - Network topologies (Star/Mesh and Virtual networks)
CS21 - Network protocols (Including layers)
CS22 - Social engineering (Blagging, Phishing and Shoulder-surfing)
CS23 - Malware (Different types and prevention strategies)
CS24 - Network security (Brute-force, DDOS, Packet sniffers and prevention stategies (e.g. policies, penetration testing etc…)
CS25 - SQL & Data Structures (How to write SQL, SQL injection and prevention strategies)
CS26 - Defensive design (Authentication methods and Validation methods - how to add defensive design to your code)
CS27 - Testing (What is testing, why is it important?, Final/iterative, test data)
Each set includes a teacher and student version.
The rest will be part of a bundle.
This is a sample lesson from the Edexcel GCSE Business Studies course and the pack includes:
Lesson PPT with starter, learning in context to help underpin newly acquired or previous knowledge.
A worksheet that can be for group work or whole class discussions. Answer sheet provided.
A workbook with answers that can be used with or without computers.
A teachers toolkit which is a lesson plan with commentary.
A set of challenges that cover programming fundamentals and is split into two sections:
Section A: The basics
Section B: Contextualised programming challenges
Solutions provided in Python. Section B could easily be adapted into exam-style algorithm questions.
This is a sample from the R093 unit from the new Creative iMedia qualification. Each lesson will consist of the following
Lesson PPT with objectives and starter/discussion based activities.
Student workbook with answers
Knowledge organisers that supplement student’s learning during the lesson.
Knowledge capture which is used to review student’s learning each lesson.
Enrichment folder which includes a combination of homework based activities and stretch tasks for the more able.
Also attached in this sample is the first lesson written out in a SOW template with commentary.
Full version due to be released in June along with R094.
This is a sample lesson from the new WJEC GCSE Computer Science that is available to start teaching from 2025.
Each lesson pack includes:
Lesson PPT
Knowledge organiser
Knowledge capture (Mark scheme included)
Workbook (Teacher version with answers)
Programming challenges for specific topics (in particular Unit 2)
You don’t need a subscription for this. Both units will cost less than a subscription.
This is the first of 12 workbooks that cover the R081 specification in preparation for the examination.
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.
A SAMPLE OF the full revision guide that includes up to 60 different types of low-stakes activities that covers the entire R093 specification is designed so students can revise through Section A style questions.
An additional revision guide (Part B) to follow which focusses on topics in more depth and tailored towards the Section B style of the paper.
Both guides come with an answer/teacher version.
Full versions available on TES.
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.

I have created a SOW that goes into two strands.
One for practical (programming) and one for theory. What I do is deliver theory one week and practical the next.
This is a sample lesson from a digital graphics unit which will be released on TES soon.
Each lesson will include:
Lesson slides with objectives, keywords and class based discussions.
Student style workbooks with can be a good substitute to traditional lessons if you like to use flipped learning. A teacher version has been provided with answers.
Worksheet to supplement the lesson and this includes answers.
All activities include a stretch and challenge task for your most able.
Each lesson will include a short MCQ that can act as a plenary/review (Using MS Forms)
This is a sample of five topics from the OCR GCSE Computer Science course and it’s designed for ‘first time teaching’.
This pack contains:
A full lesson with objectives, knowledge retrieval starter, exam practise, concept map, new information which includes videos that lead to in-class discussions.
Activities that support the objectives of the lesson. Answers provided.
Self-checker tool - A link to duplicate copies of multiple choice quizzes done in Microsoft Forms which can be copied and send to your students.
Knowledge capture - A skills audit to allow students to RAG their level of understanding, a teacher feedback and student feedback section provided. At the back is a set of exam-style questions for each topic which gives the teacher a snapshot of their understanding.
An outline of the teaching for Block 1. This is information for the student with extra information on delivery of content, something that could easily be transferred into a scheme of work.
Full versions will be premium resources and will be available on TES shortly.
