The core of computing is computer science, in which pupils are taught the principles of information and computation, how digital systems work and how to put this knowledge to use through programming. Building on this knowledge and understanding, pupils are equipped to use information technology to create programs, systems and a range of content. Computing also ensures that pupils become digitally literate able to use, and express themselves and develop their ideas through, information and communication technology at a level suitable for the future workplace and as active participants in a digital world.

It should be noted that the statutory requirements
are not labelled under these three headings in the
programme of study, and the distinction between
information technology and digital literacy is open
to some interpretation. The important thing is to
cover the content in a balanced, stimulating and
creative way rather than being overly concerned
about the specifics of terminology.
