Computing
Computing develops our students’ problem-solving abilities. In our classes, students will identify a problem, work out how to solve it and resolve the issue. We teach the course in its widest context so that the students understand the discipline’s powers and limitations in everyday life.
We are committed to ensuring that students are safe, competent and confident users of hardware, software and methodology. As a department we use the latest technology and collaborate with other departments to facilitate new teaching and learning opportunities throughout the curriculum.
