How a class works

  1. Step 1

    Make the class

    Sign in, pick GCSE Computer Science and name the class. It takes under a minute.

  2. Step 2

    Post one link

    Put the class link in your LMS, a slide or a group chat. Students join with just the name you know them by.

  3. Step 3

    See what to reteach

    Open the class page for scores, who practiced, and the topics and questions the class misses most.

What your students practice

GCSE Computer Science is two written exams of equal weight, sat at the end of Year 11 in England: one on computational thinking, algorithms and programming, and one on computer systems (data representation, hardware, networks, security and the impact of technology). AQA's papers are 2 hours and 1 hour 45 minutes for 90 marks each; OCR's are 1 hour 30 minutes for 80 marks each; Pearson Edexcel's programming paper is a 2-hour on-screen exam. Grades run 9 to 1, with boundaries set after each exam series.

Tigertest's practice follows the Department for Education's GCSE subject content for computer science (updated March 2025) and the AQA 8525, OCR J277 and Pearson Edexcel 1CP2 schemes of assessment. Students train in short sets where missed questions come back until they are mastered, then take full practice tests.

  • Programming
  • Boolean logic and languages
  • Data representation
  • Computer systems
  • Networks and cyber security
  • Ethics, law and environment

Questions teachers ask

Is the GCSE Computer Science class free?

Yes. Classes are free for teachers. A student in your class also gets that test's full stats and every step of it at no charge.

Do my students need accounts?

No. A student opens your class link, types the name you know them by and starts practicing. An account is optional and keeps their progress across devices.

What do I see as the teacher?

Who practiced and when, each student's practice test scores, the GCSE Computer Science topics the class is weakest on, and every question the class answered with how many missed it and which wrong answer they picked.

Can I use my own questions too?

Yes. Any account can turn its own material into a Tigertest quiz and limit it to one class, so only your students can play it.
