Computing

Computing 

Our aim is to provide a high-quality computing education which equips children to use computational thinking and creativity to understand and change the world. The curriculum will teach children key knowledge about how computers and computer systems work, and how they are designed and programmed. Learners will have the opportunity to gain an understanding of computational systems of all kinds, whether or not they include computers.


By the time they leave Blaby Stokes, children will have gained key knowledge and skills in the three main areas of the computing curriculum:  

  • computer science (programming and understanding how digital systems work),  
  • information technology (using computer systems to store, retrieve and send information)  
  • digital literacy (evaluating digital content and using technology safely and respectfully). 

The objectives within each strand support the development of learning across the key stages, ensuring a solid grounding for future learning and beyond. 

We use the Teach Computing scheme of work which is written by the STEM community and which Learn-AT colleagues have adapted to use our Microsoft Teams software.
