Importance of IGCSE Computer Science

IGCSE Computer Science at IB Pathways develops students’ understanding of computer systems and programming concepts. It equips them with practical skills needed for both academic and real-world applications.

Through this subject, students:

  • Learn about computer components and system architecture
  • Understand the internet as a communication tool and its potential risks
  • Develop problem-solving skills using computational logic
  • Study algorithms, program design, and logical thinking
  • Build a strong foundation for advanced study in Computer Science

The syllabus includes topics such as Computer Systems, Programming, Algorithms, Databases, and Boolean Logic.

Structure of IGCSE Computer Science

All IGCSE Computer Science candidates must take two externally assessed papers:

Paper 1: Computer Systems

  • Question types: short-answer and structured
  • Total marks: 75
  • Calculators are not permitted
  • Externally assessed

Paper 2: Algorithms, Programming, and Logic

  • Question types: short-answer, structured, and scenario-based
  • Total marks: 75
  • Calculators are not permitted
  • Externally assessed

The Grading Rules

Key points related to IGCSE Computer Science grading:

  • Grades range from A (highest) to G (lowest)
  • Students performing below Grade G are reported as Ungraded
  • The letter “Q” indicates a Pending result
  • The letter “X” indicates No Result
