Computing

  

 

At New Cangle we teach Computing using the NCCE Teach Computing Curriculum: https://teachcomputing.org/curriculumThis has full coverage of the National Curriculum for computing from Years 1–6, ensuring that children develop the knowledge, skills and understanding required throughout the primary years. The units for key stages 1 and 2 are based on a spiral curriculum. This means that each of the themes is revisited regularly (at least once in each year group), and pupils revisit each theme through a new unit that consolidates and builds on prior learning within that theme. This style of curriculum design reduces the amount of knowledge lost through forgetting, as topics are revisited yearly. It also ensures that connections are made even if different teachers are teaching the units within a theme in consecutive years.

The Teach Computing Curriculum uses the Education for a Connected World framework https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/education-for-a-connected-world to provide coverage for online safety and digital citizenship. At New Cangle, most objectives in the Education for a Connected World framework are covered in the Teach Computing Curriculum, and some are reinforced throughout the year in PSHE and other curriculum lessons, where relevant.

More detail of our computing curriculum can be found in the following documents: Computing Intent, Implementation & Impact Statement and Computing Curriculum Map

Computing is led by Mrs Clinch, who always keen to embrace new technology.
