HTML: master the tags
- structure: html, head, title, body
- text formatting, headings, lists (ol, ul, dl) and their attributes
- links (a href), images (img src, alt, width, height)
- tables (table, tr, td, th, colspan, rowspan)
- forms and input types, if they're in your current syllabus
Write small pages by hand, then check them in a browser. Board questions often ask you to write code for a given output, or to find the output of given code.
Networking and cyber ethics
Learn the definitions and differences precisely: network types, topologies, protocols, and cyber safety terms.
Practicals
Keep your practical file complete, and practise writing HTML for a given layout quickly.
