Computing

Our aims in computing are to familiarise children with all aspects of modern technology and to promote their confidence, increasing their capability to use computing in later life. We teach the computing skills as a specific subject and also integrate computing across the curriculum.
We use the Switched on Computing scheme from Rising Stars, which focusses on mini projects to enable the pupils to use technology, computational thinking and team working skills. We also place an emphasis on learning how a computer works and the importance of e-safety.
