      Updated tests for Entry Level Computer Science R354 24 September 2025

      Our Entry Level Computer Science qualification is assessed using a combination of short tests and a programming project.

      Following a review, we have amended the short tests with more up-to-date references. The tests also now reflect our accessibility principles. These new tests are available for you to use with your students now.

      You can download the new tests from the Assessment > Controlled materials section on Teach Cambridge.

      Remember, for the June 2026 series, you must submit marks to us by 15 May 2026.

      Please note: we will be removing the old tests on Teach Cambridge from September 2026. This means that for the June 2027 series onwards, we will only accept marks submitted for the new tests.

      If you have any queries about this update, please call our Customer Support Centre on 01223 553998 or email us at support@ocr.org.uk.
