​Computing
​Curriculum Overview

​Our computing curriculum is built around the 3 core strands of computer science, information technology and digital literacy. Weaving throughout these is the development of pupils’ computational thinking skills – the core problem solving skills which make effective computer scientists.

​Pupils learn to program in a range of languages including ScratchJr, Scratch and Kodu and use physical computing devices such as Spheros and  micro:bits.
 
We believe pupils’ excellent understanding of online safety and digital literacy is essential to ensure they are competent and confident users of technology and, importantly, know how to use such technology in a safe and responsible manner.  As such our digital literacy strand builds progressively throughout year groups revisiting key themes such as self-image, online reputation, online bullying and managing online information.
