Programme design. Each week is designed for approximately 120 minutes, ends with a concrete completed product, and includes a Student Delivery task that prepares a learner to lead a short activity the following week. The IT contexts draw on Units 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14 and 20. Activities are formative and contextualised: they are not replacements for Pearson assignment briefs or controlled external assessment materials.
Specifications: Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma in IT | AQA English Language 8700
Resource package. Every weekly activity refers only to materials supplied in its matching Week_XX folder. Several weeks also include a CSV, Python or offline HTML file for practical analysis. Cyber-security examples are fictional and defensive, focusing on risk, evidence, incident management and controls.
