A complete 45–70 minute OCR GCSE programming escape room designed to run entirely inside a pseudocode runner – no prep required. A fully runnable GCSE Computer Science escape room built specifically for OCR J277 and designed to work inside a pseudocode runner. Students must: Debug broken programs Fix accumulators Correct selection logic Repair validation loops Verify functions Combine arrays + iteration in a final synoptic vault build Each stage reveals a digit of the Master Code. Only when all stages are solved correctly does the final vault open. What’s Included ✔ Student Escape Room Pack (printable, structured, large-font) ✔ 6 structured programming stages ✔ Star extension challenges in every stage ✔ Exam-style written questions embedded ✔ Synoptic final build task ✔ Master Code strip + printable certificate ✔ Full Teacher Pack with complete solutions ✔ Common misconceptions guidance ✔ Clear facilitation guidance Topics Covered Variables & assignment IF / ELSE / nested selection FOR loops & accumulators WHILE loops & validation Arrays & linear search Functions MOD operator Synoptic algorithm design ⏱ Suggested Use 45–70 minute high-impact lesson End-of-topic reinforcement Year 10 programming confidence build Year 11 intervention session Revision lesson with engagement
