CS4FN is a magazine and blog from the Computer Science department at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). We share information about computer science research in an engaging way and produce a 20 page A4 magazine every year, usually on a themed topic. There’s an accompanying page on our blog with additional articles, all free to use in classrooms or for general interest reading. The blog and magazine articles are aimed at 13+ and we also have mini magazines (‘A Bit of CS4FN’) for younger readers (download from the link above).

Around 21,000 print copies of the CS4FN magazine are sent (free) to subscribing UK schools (including homeschoolers). You can sign up to receive a copy or class set of the next issue - please see the accompanying information file for the link.
