Computing

By the time pupils leave primary school we aim to develop pupils who:

•  Are responsible, confident and creative users of technology, who apply computational thinking beyond the Computing curriculum.
• Become digitally literate and are active participants in a digital world.
• Know how to stay safe whilst using technology and on the internet, minimising risk to themselves and others.
• Understand and follow agreed E-Safety rules, and know who to contact if they have concerns, including the use of report buttons.
• Have repeated practical experience writing computer programs in order to solve problems, including logic & algorithms.
• Ask and answer questions through collection, analysing, evaluating and presenting data and information.
• Understand how digital networks work & the services they provide.
• Use search options effectively; understanding the need to evaluate the relevance of content.
