Revision Hub
Approved flashcards with spaced retrieval
Type an answer before comparing it with the accepted National 5 wording.
Computing Arcade
Play what you are ready for
Short games unlock alongside your Python, database and computer-systems skills.
Daily Mastery
Make me genuinely fluent at Computing Science.
Short prescribed practice based on what you know, what is due, what needs repair and what you are ready to learn next.
Adaptive starting diagnostic
Start at the right level
A short adaptive check places Python, SQL and Computer Systems independently. You can retake any area later.
Today's prescription
Build today's practice
Adaptive placement
Starting diagnostic
Questions move up or down automatically. This is a placement check, not an exam.
Computing Arcade
Play what you have unlocked
Arcade cabinets use the same Computing Science skills as the course. School teachers control when the Arcade is open.
Choose practice
Stay on unlocked skills — or rehearse your next step
Next-skill practice is deliberately practice-only. It does not let a pupil skip or unlock the main pathway.
Debug Rescue
Repair the program before the shark reaches the fish
Diagnose, locate, repair and explain. Correct behaviour matters — your code does not have to match one exact solution.
