Shell Guide to the Curriculum 2024 2025

OPTIONAL SUBJECTS

Computer Science

We are excited to be teaching Computer Science for the second year at Teddies and have an inspiring array of projects for you to engage with in the year ahead. The focus of the course will be on coding and programming to solve real world problems in the School and the community. Pupils will tackle these practical tasks individually and in small groups. Building adaptive greenhouses that can detect temperature and climactic conditions is just one example of the sort of project on which you will work. The aim of these projects is to give Shells an excellent

grounding in coding and informatics, leaving them ready to embark on the GCSE course or to apply their skills outside the classroom.

We run a Computer Science society where you can continue to grow and develop your passion for the subject outside the timetabled lessons. We welcome all pupils, including those not taking Computer Science in the Shell.
