I'm giving it too. Prep is okay, but it would have been much better if there was a cambridge endorsed book and past papers.

Most probably Python. I'm only giving the AS components right now.

Yeah, it's a new syllabus so there's no collective resources.

Me. Taking A and AS. Did all specimen papers. Also check out AQA paper 3's and 4's. They have state transition diagrams, decision tables etc which are all required.

Python is an intutitive programming language, closest to English. There's plenty of free resources available on the internet to learn it.
https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-python
This would be probably a good place to start.

P.S. I'm a CS graduate. I did Applied ICT in my A level back in 2014
