Advanced PSP Computer Science - Perpetua
Perpetua students are independent, resilient, and intellectually curious programmers. They demonstrate strong engagement with wider Computer Science concepts, such as encryption techniques, emerging technologies, and database architecture. Their NEA solutions go beyond minimum requirements, showing advanced planning, stakeholder consideration, and creative use of tools such as APIs or complex data structures.
They regularly participate in enrichment opportunities such as the Perse Coding Challenge or British Informatics Olympiad, and show initiative through self-led exploration or mentoring others.
