Our computer science curriculum contains 15 hours of content, available anytime, anywhere online. The way in which we deliver our content is INCREDIBLY flexible:

1Course
This courses is custom-made to meet the specific requirements of the new GCSE in computer science. The course provides a comprehensive set of lessons for a complete program of study and are supplemented with a range of support materials for English and Maths.

2Library (Exploring STEM Library)
This huge collection of Secondary School resources is called our Exploring STEM Library...with this library you can have access to EVERY SINGLE piece of learning content for Secondary School that we have ever published! This resource is ideal for teachers to search and make their own courses.

3Hardware Resource Library
ERIK comes with a set of practical-based lesson content as standard to help you get the most out of our hands-on lessons.

Our lessons – in detail

Presentations

Comprehensive, informative, insightful. Our presentations provide students with the knowledge they need to gain key programming skills in our Computer Science Study Program. Our presentations are completely narrated with subtitles for the hard of hearing.

Investigations

Exciting, inquiring, tactile. A range of skills development activities, including on-screen explorers and problem-solving tasks. Again, these lessons are fully narrated.

Assessments

Thought-provoking, challenging, versatile. Assess student understanding of every topic in a supportive way that clearly identifies the correct answer to each question once it has been attempted.

Practical Tasks

Hands-on activities linked to theoretical resources that allow students to develop active learning skills.

Open-Ended Design Projects

These lessons allow students to get creative: if they can imagine it, they can build it!

The Best of the Rest

Our lessons contain integrated Maths and English Support Materials. Effortlessly search through our lessons and support materials… by keyword, by standard or by topic.

Learning Management System

Our Learning Management System automatically tracks and records the progress and attainment of your students, and the school’s progress overall. You can see how much time students spend on each module, how often they log in, and instantly see records of their grades across the program.

The LMS gives the teacher control over the construction of courses, allowing them to be tailored for their students, and includes extensive student-tracking and reporting, adding up to a world-leading solution to your learning-providing needs.
