Computing is an important part of our lives and our future. It is crucial that we provide children with a curriculum that they enjoy and prepares them for this ever-changing world of technology. It is vital we educate pupils with the knowledge on how best to use technology safely, respectfully and responsibly. At Our Lady’s Catholic Primary School, we develop a sense of curiosity and creativity within the subject; making links between different contexts and purposes.
At Our Lady’s, we recognise that pupils are entitled to quality hardware and software, as well as a structured and progressive approach to the learning of the skills needed to enable them to use it effectively. In order to achieve this, we have carefully-selected the Kapow Computing scheme. We recognise that computing and technology are an ever increasing part of day to day life and we aim to ensure that all children are prepared for the future and the technology it holds. At Our Lady’s, online safety is at the core of all Computing teaching and provides the anchor for every lesson. Pupils are taught the three main components of Computing: Computer Science, Digital Literacy and Information Technology. Their learning of the whole curriculum is enhanced through the use of a range of technologies.
