Computing

In Computing at Crispin, students do not just use technology; they learn how it works and how to make it work for them. In Year 7 they program in Scratch before moving on to Python, and by Year 9 they are coding micro:bits and sensors, exploring encryption, and learning how artificial intelligence works and how to use it critically and safely.

Alongside programming, every student learns to use spreadsheets and create digital animation with confidence.

Just as importantly, they learn how to stay safe online and how to be responsible, kind digital citizens. At Key Stage 4, students can choose GCSE Computer Science or Digital Information Technology.

Both courses build strong problem-solving skills and open the door to further study and careers in software development, cyber security, data analysis and beyond.
