Computing

Vision and Rationale

We aim to give all pupils irresistible learning opportunities & experiences so that they become computational thinkers.

By the end of KS2, we aim to ensure that all pupils are:

Digitally literate i.e. they are able to use, and express themselves and develop their ideas through, information and communication technology – at a level suitable for the future workplace and as active participants in a digital world.

  •  They can understand and apply the fundamental principles and concepts of computer science, including, logic, algorithms and data representation. (Computer Science)
  • They can analyse problems in computational terms, and have repeated practical experience of writing computer programs in order to solve such problems. (Computer Science)
  • They can evaluate and apply information technology, including new or unfamiliar technologies, examining information to solve problems. (Information Technology)

Furthermore, we are ensuring all pupils are responsible, competent, confident and creative users of information and communication technology. (Digital Literacy)
