Computer Studies
Rangitoto College has a long history of teaching students the fundamentals of Computer Science. Our first course was offered in 1973, and a computer science course has been available ever since. We remain one of the very few high schools that still offer students the opportunity to learn about the principles of computer science. Our courses are designed to teach the programming disciplines that would be required by industry and our teachers have previous experience as computing specialists, including employment in the industry. Our courses in Year 12 and Year 13 should be taken by students who have a passion for discovering how computers work and how they are programmed. The course meets the university entrance requirements for further study in the subject.
