Computer Science – iDEA Bronze certification

Ella D and Serena S from Year 7 cohort are the first to complete their Bronze Award in Computer Science, showing dedication, curiosity, and a strong start to their secondary journey.

The award recognises their commitment to learning beyond the classroom and building new skills. It highlights the value of perseverance, independence, and trying something new. Their achievement sets a fantastic example for their peers. Well done on this impressive milestone so early in the year!

“I’ve completed 33 Bronze iDEA badges, earning 302 points in total. Some of my favourites were Money Management, Website Creation, Interviews, and Global Goals, as they taught me useful life skills and helped me explore future interests. Doing iDEA alongside my Computer Science homework taught me to explain things in detail and apply skills across tasks. The biggest challenge was figuring things out when I didn’t understand, but it helped me grow. I really enjoyed iDEA and can’t wait for the next stage!” Ella.

“I really enjoyed the creativity in all the badges, especially the Citizen ones, they were so much fun! I also loved the Colour badge on Maker for its creative challenge.” Serena.
