Computing

A high-quality computing education equips pupils to use computational thinking and creativity to understand and change the world. Computing has deep links with mathematics, science and design and technology, and provides insights into both natural and artificial systems. The core of computing is computer science, in which pupils are taught the principles of information and computation, how digital systems work and how to put this knowledge to use through programming. Building on this knowledge and understanding, pupils are equipped to use information technology to create programs, systems and a range of content. Computing also ensures that pupils become digitally literate – 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.

Our Vision Statement

Through the teaching of our computing curriculum, the children will learn the importance of resilience and embrace challenges, knowing God is by their side. The children will learn about how important it is to use technology effectively, safely, respectfully and responsibly; they will incorporate key Christian Values into their learning. The children will have a breath of experience to develop themselves as individuals within their community but also as members of a wider global community and as a responsible digital citizen.
