Welcome to the Business & Computing Department

At Stretford High School, our Business and Computing department is dedicated to equipping students with a deep understanding of the pivotal role that Computer Science and ICT play in today’s dynamic world. Our curriculum is designed to foster creativity and computational thinking, preparing students to navigate an ever-evolving digital world.

In our Computer Science courses, students will gain a robust foundation in key concepts such as computational thinking and data representation. They will learn how digital systems operate and apply this knowledge practically through programming across a range of platforms. Our hands-on approach ensures that students repeatedly engage in writing computer programs, honing their problem-solving skills and adaptability.

We strive to encourage students to evaluate and utilise both familiar and emerging technologies effectively. Our goal is to develop responsible, competent, confident, and innovative users of ICT, ready to tackle the challenges and opportunities of the modern world.
