Computing
We have designed a history and geography-rich curriculum that connects learning by building an understanding of ideas, concepts, chronology and themes through the framework of ‘here, there, then, now, and next’. These thinking threads create opportunities to learn from the past to equip children for an ever-changing and exciting future.
As computer technicians, we are equipped with the skills to navigate technology here and now, building on innovations from there and then, and preparing to thrive in a digitally connected world next.
Our curriculum is structured and supported through the use of a published scheme – Digital Learning Cornwall. DLC develops a secure understanding of online safety as well as allowing children to become confident creators of digital content and media, developing their knowledge in three key areas:
- Computer science
- Information technology
- Digital literacy
As technology is ever-evolving, it is vital that our pupils are able to adapt flexibly to these rapid changes. We ensure this through revisiting areas of understanding, and becoming more confidently equipped. This means that they will be able to harness the many opportunities that modern technology presents, while remaining safe online.
