Computing equips pupils to use computational thinking and creativity to become active, competent and responsible and safe participants in a rich digital world. Our computing curriculum provides opportunities for all pupils to become digitally literate, and to have the skills to express themselves and develop their ideas safely within a variety of contexts through digital technology.

Our computing curriculum encompasses the aims of the National Curriculum to ensure all pupils:

• can understand and apply the fundamental principles and concepts of computer science, including abstraction, logic, algorithms and data representation
• can analyse problems in computational terms, and have repeated practical experience of writing computer programs in order to solve such problems
• can evaluate and apply information technology, including new or unfamiliar technologies, analytically to solve problems
• are responsible, competent, confident and creative users of information and communication technology
