AQA AS and A Level Computer Science
400pp
A complete course text which includes AS and A Level. Available in printed and digital formats.
This textbook has been approved by AQA
Available in printed paperback format, or as a digital subscription edition
The book is divided into 12 sections, each containing roughly six chapters. Each chapter covers material that can comfortably be taught in one or two lessons. It will also be a useful reference and revision guide for students throughout the A Level course. Two short appendices contain A Level content that could be taught in the first year of the course as an extension to related AS topics.
Each chapter contains exercises, some new and some from past examination papers, which can be set as homework. Answers to all these are available to teachers only, in a Teachers Supplement which can be ordered and downloaded via the website.
To accompany this textbook, PG Online also publishes a series of 12 downloadable teaching units. Each topic in a unit consists of a PowerPoint presentation, teacher’s notes, worksheets, homework sheets and a final assessment test with practice questions. Each topic within a unit is expected to be taught over several lessons in a week. Units are sold as a lifetime site licence and may be loaded onto the school’s private network or VLE.

I love this book. As a relatively new teacher to A Level Computer Science, this book is of immense value to both myself and my students. The layout inspires confidence, is easy to find the topic you want to focus on and I love the way the pages are colour coded. I believe the regular use of this book, together with other preferred resources, will increase the chances of success for students.
