AQA 6521 A2 Revision


Extra revision stuff for A2 ICT
- As a special treat (a bit like chocolate and marshmallow covered bones only betterer!!!) Liz Brown has kindly made available a fantastic collection of theory PowerPoints, based on the Mott & Leeming textbooks, which are ideal for testing your knowledge of ICT4/ICT5 topics. A big FatMax thanks to Liz who *you* should probably send some flowers or sweets (I know which I'd prefer!!!) as a small token of your appreciation.
