INFORMATION and COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY (ICT)

The Cambridge IGCSE Information and Communications Technology (ICT) syllabus encourages learners to develop lifelong skills, which will be useful to them in their work across the curriculum and prepare them for future employment. They will develop understanding of the implications of technology in society, including social, economic and ethical uses and awareness of the ways ICT can help in home, learning and work environments.

The syllabus combines theoretical and practical studies focusing on the ability to use common software applications to solve problems, including word processors, spreadsheets, databases, interactive presentation software, web browsers and website design. Learners analyse, design, implement, test and evaluate Information Communication Technology systems, ensuring that they are fit for purpose.
