The Computer Science department at Trinity School is a vibrant and innovative team, dedicated to advancing the knowledge and skills of our students in digital technologies. We aim to strengthen our existing talented team. We possess a clear curriculum vision for Computer Science and are in search of a dedicated and skilled professional to bring this vision to life in the classroom.

Each year group at this stage has approximately 5 lessons per fortnight. The early introduction to programming prepares students effectively for the rigors of the GCSE curriculum, providing them with a solid foundation in both theoretical and practical aspects of computing and information technologies.



For Key Stage 5, our offerings are currently vocational with a plan to expand into A-level courses in the near future. We offer the Cambridge Technicals Level 3 in ICT, which comprises five units completed over two years with OCR as the exam board. This course is designed to provide an in-depth understanding of ICT, preparing students for further education and diverse career opportunities in the tech industry.
