Craig Sargent and David Hillyard are two experienced classroom teachers. Both with a degree in Computer Science, and over 30 years experience teaching in comprehensive secondary schools in England.
Our aim is to help you deliver outstanding computer science lessons by creating the very best resources.
Contemporary, outstanding lessons
Gone are the days where it is acceptable to go through a PowerPoint of theory from the front of the class. Using our workbooks and activities to support our free videos, students are engaged and learn independently from the very first minute of the lesson.

Introducing Smart Revise
Do your students seem to forget everything you have taught them?
We have a solution for you!
We have a video to teach your students the theory for EVERY bullet point of your course specification. These aren’t generic videos, these are EXACTLY matched to the requirements of the course.
We promote a flipped classroom pedagogy where you set the video for students to watch for homework in advance of the lesson. They then come to the lesson with the required knowledge, and you can begin activities immediately without the need for chalk and talk time!
OCR GCSE VIDEOS
Covering every specification point of the OCR J276 GCSE computer science specification.
OCR A’LEVEL VIDEOS
Covering every specification point of the OCR H046 and H446 computer science specifications.
AQA A’LEVEL VIDEOS

Premium Resources
To support our free videos, we have classroom activities and resources to help you teach every aspect of the specification, each with answers so you don’t have to be an expert!
