About Course

Edexcel AS Level Computer Science covers principles of computer science and algorithmic problem solving, examined through Edexcel's practical, code-based question style.

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

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

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

Because Edexcel's second unit requires practical programming, our tutors have students writing, testing and debugging real code every lesson, not just reading about programming concepts.

Parents sometimes worry that a board-specific tutor limits flexibility if their child's subjects change. In practice, the opposite is usually true: a tutor who deeply understands Edexcel's exam style spots weak spots faster than a generalist juggling several specifications at once.
