Why We Study Computer Science 

We study computing to develop our knowledge of computation and technology so that we develop computational thinking skills.

By studying Computing, we learn how computers and computer systems work, develop the skills required to design and build computer programs, develop our ideas using technology and create a range of digital content. Subsequently, we become better prepared to participate effectively in this digital and technology-driven world

What Studying Computing Is Like at HASN

In Computing at Harris Academy South Norwood, students learn how computers work and how technology is used in the modern world. Lessons focus on problem‑solving, programming and creating digital content.

Students develop their ideas through practical tasks, discussion and written explanations, learning to test and improve their work. Computing is taught in a safe, inclusive environment that builds confidence, curiosity and the skills needed for a digital future.
