RGC Online recently welcomed its 2025-26 Higher Computing Science cohort to Schoolhill, Aberdeen for their Assignment Weekend, bringing together online learners from across the country for an important stage of their course.
During the visit, students completed their Qualifications Scotland coursework assessments with support from their class teacher, Mr Munn, and Miss Johnson, Teacher of Computing Science and Examinations Coordinator at Robert Gordon’s College. The weekend provided an opportunity for students who study together online throughout the year to meet in person and collaborate with their peers.
The visit also celebrated outstanding academic achievement within the cohort. Congratulations to RGC Online student Sofie, who was awarded the Hopper Prize for best overall female student, and to Finlay, who received the Turing Prize for best overall male student. Presented by DressCode, the awards recognise exceptional performance in the Prelim Examinations.
