Cambridge AS Level Computer Science

Cambridge AS Level Computer Science covers information representation, communication and networks, hardware, system software, security, ethics, databases and algorithm design, examined through Cambridge's theory and problem-solving papers.

Because Cambridge writes its own exam papers with a distinctive structure, Centaurus Academy's Cambridge AS Level Computer Science tutors specialise in this exact specification, giving you an online Cambridge AS Level Computer Science tutor rather than a generic mix of boards, with Cambridge AS Level Computer Science tuition online built entirely around this specific syllabus.

Lessons combine hands-on coding practice with real Cambridge past papers, so students get used to the specific pseudocode conventions and mark scheme style Cambridge uses at this level.

Many of our Cambridge AS Level Computer Science students are building towards the full A Level or competitive Computer Science applications, so our tutors build genuine programming fluency, not just theory memorised for the written paper.

Because Cambridge's Paper 2 tests problem-solving and programming in pseudocode, our tutors have students writing, testing and debugging real code every lesson, not just reading about programming concepts.

Parents sometimes worry that Computer Science tutoring means just watching a tutor code. In practice, our sessions have students writing and debugging their own programs every lesson, which is what actually builds exam-ready skill.
