In 2020 the department launched our highly successful Digital T Level delivered in our industry standard accommodation with industry standard specialist resources. Leeds is often described as the ‘Digital Nexus of the North’ and we are particularly pleased to have secured industry placements with specialised prominent digital employers. The department is lively, dynamic and progressive in terms of its approaches to delivering the specifications we currently offer with a wealth of experience and professional knowledge. Ideally Page 2 of 9 you will have a track record of success teaching on A Level Computer Science.
