I have found CSUK invaluable when it comes to the delivery of my J277 Curriculum. I find their resources more engaging and useful then any other CS resources available out there.

The retrieval documents, the knowledge organisers and the actual workbooks themselves are very well written, complete with graded questions and answers and are a great way of scaffolding the higher mark questions, especially the very useful 1.6 Essay Guide booklet which uses the Cornell Notes system in order to build up answers.

These come complete with exemplar answers and the correct and most useful way to answer such questions.

What is the most impressive is the booklets that are accompanied by all the unit 2 materials, these are proving to be particularly useful, especially with weaker students.

Overall I would thoroughly recommend this website, especially the revise section.

We have been using CSUK:Teacher and CSUK:ReviseCS for a number of years now. Our KS3 students really engage with the content of the KS3 modules we use and the GCSE students like using CSUK:ReviseCS because they are able to access all of the resources outside the lessons. The self-marking python exercises managed to get them competing with each other and really thinking about what they needed to do to get things exactly right! The ability to set tasks that students could then access at home (and that self-mark!) and the resources that we only need to tweak to fit our students, has saved us hours.

Just a massive thank you! I am an ECT 1 with minimal resources at my current school. CSUK was recommended to me by another teacher when I asked about their resources because I saw my son's GCSE work. What a revelation! And a CS teacher who knows programming conventions too. Just awesome. Thanks again.

On the new Exam Master Module can I just say "Bloody hell, this is an amazing tool!!"

My yr11 class have really rated CSUK:ReviseCS for homework and revision.  PyPuzzles has been fantastic too, especially if I have had to set cover, I know my classes can just get on with them.

Just wanted to say how much I like the new dashboard on the CSUK:ReviseCS site. It is so easy to navigate.

The CSUK resources are excellent; they have made my life so much easier. They have saved me a lot of preparation time.  I like using the BrainQuest's as part of retrieval practice to start the next lesson, and the kids love the AiAnna lesson Rap's.  The subscription is superb value for money. Thank you CSUK.

CSUK is a fantastic platform offering excellent resources to help students consolidate learning. It allows retrieval practice, stretch and challenge as well as differentiating learning. The students love it to bits, and it help them secure excellent outcomes if used concurrently with their classroom teaching and learning. Well done and keep up the great work raising Computer Science

CSUK has been a game-changer for me and has exceeded my expectations in every aspect. 

The wealth of resources available is unparalleled. The extensive library of lesson, resources, and teaching materials has not only saved me countless hours of planning but has also enriched my lessons and made them more engaging and impactful for my students.  

The content is up-to-date, and aligned with the latest educational standards, ensuring that I am delivering a high-quality education.

An excellent one-stop site to get all the resources I needed to get my Yr 11's through their GCSEs. The students loved the starters and flashcards which kept everyone recalling knowledge. What a brainwave to create the long answer guides, now that was top! To top it all the new KS3 to GCSE transition workbook for summer. Pure class and all for a ridiculously low price. Other sites take note!

Computer Science Teacher (Countesthorpe Academy )

I must comment on the new Algorithm writing guide and workbook.
It is an excellent piece of work, set out in easy to follow sections that guide the students through.
I like that you can also use it as homework tasks as it is split into sections, meaning I can set tasks by section.
An excellent resource for read and recall .
Thank you for an excellent guide and hard work.
