Computing<\/h2>

\u00a0\"\"<\/p>

We care for all God\u2019s children, unconditionally. As a rural town community, the Parable of\u00a0 Jesus as the Good Shepherd (John 10:11) resonates with our children\u00a0who feel valued and welcomed as individuals. All members of our school family, the community and the wider world are valued and respected.<\/em><\/p>

Long Term Planning Computing 2024 – 2025<\/a><\/p>

Intent<\/p><\/div>

Our\u00a0intent for Computing is that an exciting and rigorous Computing education will ensure children are immersed in engaging, technology-rich learning experiences which allow them to learn deeply and embed core computing skills, think independently and problem solve in an ever-evolving digital world. Regardless of changes within technology and the world we live in, our children will possess the core skills and behaviours required to safely and confidently access new technology to enhance their wider learning, access the curriculum throughout their school journey and inspire a future where technology is used to innovate and make positive change.
We believe that learning about Computing provides an important context for the development of pupils\u2019 key learning skills, particularly problem-solving, creative and critical thinking and resourcefulness.
We\u00a0recognise that social context plays a vital role in children\u2019s education and as such we aim to provide opportunities for children to experience Computing in ways that are unique to our local and wider community<\/p>

St. Nick’s aim:<\/p><\/div>

Underpinning the intent are key concepts and the National Curriculum Computing statements for Key stages 1 and 2 (see blue bullet points in the coverage sections, below). These are further refined with key substantive and disciplinary concepts:
\"\"<\/p>

\u00a0Implementation<\/p><\/div>

To meet the aim of delivering this comprehensive set of substantive and disciplinary concepts, the National Centre for Computing Education (NCCE)\u00a0\u201cTeach<\/a>
Computing\u201d curriculum<\/a>\u00a0is followed. These resources and foci\u00a0are be adapted to suit the school and cohort as well as to match\u00a0our available software and hardware.\u00a0<\/p>

Complementary teaching and learning activities are used from Childnet’s\u00a0Smartie the Penguin<\/a>,\u00a0Digi Duck<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Project Evolve<\/a>\u00a0are used to enhance online safety knowledge, skills and understanding.<\/p>

Intended Impact<\/p><\/div>

Our computing curriculum will ensure pupils are well-equipped with the skills and knowledge essential to use technology to learn, communicate and operate safely, effectively and efficiently in an ever-changing technological climate.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
