OCR A-Level Computer Science H446 revision grids for all topics of the course.
Each sheet is made to be printed in A3 double sided, so that students can fill in areas to recall knowledge. This covers all the topics in Component 1 and Component 2.
Each Topic has its own section for each grouping and starts with the snipped from the Specification to make sure students have a full understanding of the course.
Enjoy!
An A-Level CS Lesson to cover 1.4.3 Boolean Algebra covering:
Bitwise Manipulation and Masks
Logic Diagrams and Truth Tables
Boolean Expressions and Simplification
De Morgan’s Laws, Distribution, Association, Cummutation, Double Negation.
Half and Full Adders
D Type Flip Flops
The lesson is created using Open Dyslexic font.
Finally, this lesson used to contain OCR exam questions which have been removed for copywrite purposes, they were initally placed after each of the bullet points above.
Hope this helps.
For this game you will need to print the board, Set of Questions (Paper 1 or Paper 2) and a rule card.
The instructions are set out on the rule card. The rules have been created to involve questioning as well as playing the game.
I have included the original files and a PDF version. The main file is created using the ‘OpenDyslexic’ font formatting may change if this font is not installed.
Enjoy!
Instructional Slides and Game Sheets are inside.
Simply print the game sheets, two per group. If possible laminate the sheets for reuse, with whiteboard pens. Make sure sheets are folded before playing, We do not like cheating!
Instructions should be straight forward.
Enjoy!
Everything in this bundle should allow for varied revision encompassing the entire of the J277 specifications for GCSE OCR Computer Science.
Recently remade and updated resources! More being updated shortly!

Recently remade specifically for J277!
I have created revision mats/knowledge organisers for all topics in the OCR Computer Science GCSE (J277). I have found them particularly handy as homework for a topic or as a recap when finished the delivery of a topic.
These are designed using the ‘OpenDyslexic’ font, this can be seen on the PDF’s. Formatting may differ on the publisher document if you do not have the font installed.
This pack consists of the original publisher file as well as a PDF of all the mats too.
Enjoy!
I have created Recap Grids for all topics in the OCR Computer Science GCSE (J277). These were used by my Year 11 Cohort, they have found them quite effective as recap starters at the beginning of lessons and revision at home. They work great for testing students knowledge after delivering a topic as well .
All the Recap have been designed to be displayed on an interactive whiteboard or on a mobile phone/tablet. All cards are using the ‘OpenDyslexic’ font. Formatting may differ on the the PowerPoint if you do not have the font installed.
This pack consists of the original PowerPoint file with Macros programmed to ease the users navigation of the content.

All the help sheets below were created inline with the specification for OCR J276/J277 ‘Computational thinking, algorithms and programming’ and ‘Programming Project’ sections of the course.
I created these for my own Year 10/11 students and they have found them very useful, when introducing sections of Python programming theory.
I use these in lessons to push that Software Engineering is a form of Engineering. The idea is that you create toolboxs (I use plastic buttoned wallets), these contain all the skills, Functions and Error Cards. A toolbox the students can go in to get the tools they need to solve problems. My Y10s use these for independant work as I have only recently created them. However with my Y9’s I give them the cards as they obtain the skills throughout the scheme of works. This way they build their own collection of learnt skills and functions that they can look back on when problem solving.
All the cards have been designed to be printed double sided on the long edge, All cards are using the ‘OpenDyslexic’ font, this can be seen on the PDF’s. Formatting may differ on the publisher document if you do not have the font installed.
This pack consists of the original publisher file’s as well as PDFs of all the cards too. I have also created a PDF of each set of cards that represent each separate group of cards, Skill, Function and Error.
Enjoy!
Recently remade for J277!
I have created question cards for all topics in the OCR Computer Science GCSE (J277). These were used by my Year 11 Cohort, they have found them quite effective as support tools in lessons and revision at home. They work great for testing students knowledge after delivering a topic as well as extending questioning individually in lessons.
I have created wall display that has each Topic Easy, Medium and Hard. This allows students to collect a question card to further their learning whenever they want too. I have used Blooms style questioning allowing for the testing of knowledge, application of knowledge and then applying it further. I have named these ‘Attained it…’, ‘Applied it…’ and ‘Advanced it…’ respectively.
All the cards have been designed to be printed double sided on the short edge, This is so that the topic name is on the back. All cards are using the ‘OpenDyslexic’ font, this can be seen on the PDF’s. Formatting may differ on the publisher document if you do not have the font installed.
This pack consists of the original publisher file’s as well as PDFs of all the cards too. I have also created a PDF of each set of cards that represent each separate paper of the OCR course, as well as one for all topics across the course. The content does not differ from the collective one to the individual in any way.
Enjoy!

I have created revision cards for all topics in the OCR Computer Science GCSE (J277). These are used by my current Year 11 Cohort, they have found them quite effective as support tools in lessons and revision at home. I allow students to use them whilst answering question in lesson so that they are focusing on exam techniques whilst absorbing the subject knowledge too.
I have created a revision wall by printing each card in A3 and arranging it on the wall. Students can consult the wall if they are stuck.
All the cards have been designed to be printed double sided on the short edge, This is so that the topic name is on the back. All cards are using the ‘OpenDyslexic’ font, this can be seen on the PDF’s. Formatting may differ on the publisher document if you do not have the font installed.

UPDATE# I have added the Pseudocode Programming Techniques page, to match up with the Question Cards
This set of resources is around building Python skills. It has been designed for KS4 Computer Science students, with OCR J276/J277 in mind.
No prior Python knowledge is required from students, as the resources are aimed at complete novices.
Enclosed is 29 hours of lessons. Within this there are assessments designed to test and challenge the students. Lesson have been numbers with my suggested order.
The following skills are covered:
Inputs and Outputs
Variables
Data types and Casting
Maths
String Manipulation
Conditional statements
Iteration
Arrays
Procedures and Functions
Defensive program design
Debugging
Flowcharts
Pseudocode
This lesson is designed in ‘OpenDyslexic’ font, if you do not have this font installed the formatting of the lesson may be out. On the side of each page is a volume meter, this can be used for behaviour management to show students how loud they are and where their volume should be.
Enjoy!
