Cambridge 0478 syllabus for 2026–2028

What your lessons look like

Match the paper you will actually sit.
Share your code, exam year and any school materials. 0478 uses A*–G grading; 0984 is the 9–1 route. Check availability and entry details with your school or exam centre.
Turn recall into an explanation.
Practise connecting ideas in hardware, networks and data representation. Then use questions to check whether you can explain the concept without a prompt.
Slow down the algorithm.
Work line by line through trace tables before writing a solution. For the 2026–2028 syllabus, practise pseudocode and the scenario-based question alongside programming.
Prepare internationally, plan locally.
Lessons are online and scheduled by agreement across time zones. Your school or private-candidate centre handles exam entry and local arrangements; tutoring is separate from registration.
