Computing Curriculum

Intent:

• To provide a set of core Computing activities that support children’s progression in Computing capabilities
• To provide a broad and rich experience of Computing that challenges and engages children
• To ensure that children develop the skills to make safe choices when using Computing. 

Implementation:
Utilising the Purple Mash Computing Scheme of Work, computing is taught both as a discreet subject and whenever applicable taught, developed and linked across a host of other curriculum areas (for example: English, Maths, Science, Music). The scheme provides a comprehensive set of resources aligned to the National Curricula for Computing, Technology and Digital Competence, exposing the children to a wide variety of digital tools, technological skills and innovations, enabling them to become informed members of the digital community.

We have two banks of laptop computers, additional Chromebooks and 2 I-pads in each classroom. All classes have interactive boards.
