Computing
Our Scheme of Learning has been adapted in conjunction with the ‘Rising Stars Switched On’ Computing scheme. All units of teaching and learning are scaffolded to support all learning needs and have useful assessment activities built in. Although each class has a scheduled time in the ICT suite, for the development of ICT skills our approach is to integrate ICT across our curriculum. The children at our school use iPads regularly for independent research alongside other devices such as cameras and Bee-Bots in the younger years. Pupils are taught, and regularly reminded, how to use technology safely and identify where to go for help and support when they have concerns.
