The Computing Progression Pathways suggests that at the blue level, on the theme of Data & Data Representation, a student should demonstrate that he/she:

• Performs more complex searches for information e.g. using Boolean and relational operators (Algorithmic Thinking) (Generalisation) (Evaluation)
• Analyses and evaluates data and information, and recognises that poor quality data leads to unreliable results, and inaccurate conclusions. (Algorithmic Thinking) (Evaluation)
