Hi 
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have been teaching Computing at years 10 and 11 and Informatics at Williamstown for 3 years.  I have so far only taught informatics at year 12 because software development hasn’t been taught here for many years.  I am interested in teaching
 it though and there is a possibility we may be able to have a class next year.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have been teaching Xcode with the swift programming language to my year 10’s and 11’s as I have a classroom of all iMac’s.  Having never taught Software Development before I was just looking for some advice as to whether this would be a good
 language to use for it.  Is there anyone else teaching Swift at year 12? Otherwise is there another language that might be better that can be taught on macs.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Appreciate your feedback</div>
