Computing
With deep cross curricular links, we deliver an exciting and rigorous curriculum using the Purple Mash program, that address the challenges and opportunities offered by the technologically rich world in which we live – creating responsible digital citizens who understand how to keep themselves safe online.
Our pupils learn the vocabulary, ideas and principles of computer science that underpin how digital technology works, alongside the practical experience of programming. Preparing children for future study, the workplace and the digital world, our curriculum builds computational thinking by developing real world problem solvers who can confidently use and apply information technology – including through creative and collaborative projects.
Our children are familiar with new technology, and use it across the curriculum to support their learning. Facilities include interactive whiteboards, laptops and iPads.
We equip children with the knowledge and resilience to use digital technologies responsibly and safely in response to current events and changing trends in our children’s online activities, so that our pupils are better prepared for today’s world and the future.
