Spreadsheets turn up everywhere in school, from science results to a geography survey. This course takes students from an empty grid to confidently building formulas, sorting and filtering, and drawing charts that actually communicate something.
It covers the skills the computing curriculum expects at Key Stage 3, and the practical ones that make coursework and science write-ups far less painful.
Works with Excel, Google Sheets or LibreOffice — the ideas are the same in all three.
Chosen by families and schools who want their children learning with confidence.

Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet developed by Microsoft for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS. It features calculation, graphing tools, pivot tables, and a macro programming language called Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).
Microsoft Excel has the basic features of all spreadsheets,[6] using a grid of cells arranged in numbered rows and letter-named columns to organize data manipulations like arithmetic operations.
Excel supports charts, graphs, or histograms generated from specified groups of cells. It also supports Pivot Charts that allow for a chart to be linked directly to a Pivot table. This allows the chart to be refreshed with the Pivot Table.
