A-Level Computer Scientists Visit Bletchley Park
A-Level Computer Science students visited Bletchley Park, the historic home of British codebreaking during World War II.
During the visit, students explored first, second, and third generation computers in action and saw early cryptography machines, including the Enigma, Bombe, Lorenz, and Colossus. They also had the opportunity to program a BBC Micro computer and try out retro games consoles, bringing the history of computing to life in a hands-on way.
The trip provided a unique chance to connect theoretical learning with historical innovation, inspiring students to see the evolution of computing and cryptography firsthand.
