Developing CS education, how can you help
summary
England revamps the curriculum and funding proves tiny: £3.6m total equals about £83 per teacher. A‑level computing enrollment falls from about 28,000 to ~8,000 after vocational split then inches back to 2007 levels. Many classroom hurdles are concrete: Windows‑heavy labs, lockeddown installs, and confusing installers like pygame zero that block uptake. Practical fixes are specific meetings beforehand, pick one clearly scoped task, plan roles, be honest about skills and respect each other’s time.
