Computing

At King Edwin Primary we follow the National Curriculum for Computing.
 

The teaching of Computing:


  • Ensures children understand how to use technology safely, including how to stay safe online.

  • Helps children develop the skills they need to confidently use ICT for different purposes.

  • Encourages children to apply computational thinking approaches and creativity to solve problems.

  • Allows children to make links with other subjects to deepen their learning and apply a broad range of skills.

  • Introduces children to Computer Science, how computers work and programming.

We follow the National Centre For Computing Education (NCCE) scheme of work across Key Stage One and Two, which covers the three key areas within the National Curriculum: Digital literacy, Computer science and Information Technology.
