The 3 and 4 units used to have 3 outcomes too, which was clearly excessive,
and they were pared back to 2 outcomes per unit.

Year 11 IT is a bit of a showbag with aspects of both Informatics and SD,
so breadth is more desirable than depth and students get a taste of both
paths.

2c worth (but this comment is a registered charity, so it's deductible)
