As well as dedicated Computing lessons during which children learn specific skills (such as word processing and using the internet), there are many more lessons in which Computing is used as a ‘vehicle’ to learn in other areas. This might be as simple as using a maths game to practise times tables, or something more complex such as entering data from a PE lesson to compare performances or creating green-screen films linked to weather across the world.
We use a wide range of technology to embed Computing across curriculum including laptops, iPads, Macbooks & flipcams.
We have adopted the Computing scheme of work produced by Knowsley CLCs which aims to combine computer science, information technology, digital literacy and digital citizenship & technology into a cohesive scheme of work.
