What do you do with year 9 in the summer term when they've already chosen options and definitely aren't carrying on with computing?

A2. The nature of our service makes it difficult to do "weeks" and "challenges", and it's difficult to say what's in the National Curriculum, but every GCSE lesson we probably do something that's not on the specification. #CASchat

It couldn't be worse! Even before the changes I always thought that the non-linear threading of posts on Twitter made #CASchat difficult to follow.

Most of this is untrue or misses what we actually do as teachers. Bless them for trying though.

Is AI exacerbating the digital divide or just highlighting it's there? Schools with better CPD will respond quicker to new tech developments so staff are better trained, engage more, feel more confident etc.

Just spent 20 mins playing around with Fortnite Creator having seen it at #CASconf2025. There's no teacher oversight on chats, friend requests etc. It also needs unrestricted access to Fortnite to work. Seems sadly unworkable in a school. Did I miss something? #CSed #TeamCompSci #EdTech #caschat

Curious as to what the first term of KS3 looks like in your school, for us yr7 introduction to computer science (history, keywords and problem solving) followed by e-safety, yr 8s do cyber security and then networks, yr 9 algorithms and then python. We get 1hr per week. #teamCompSci #casChat
