COMPUTING

Computing prepares children to participate in tomorrow’s rapidly changing technologies. At Cottesbrooke Infant & Nursery School we give all children access to a wide range of high-quality equipment including the use of computer hardware and software, tablets, interactive whiteboards, projectors, recordable devices, cameras, programmable toys, e-mail and the internet. We help children to develop the confidence and skills they need in order to be successful in this increasingly technological age. We use the Kapow Computing scheme of work to teach Computing.

 

Throughout the EYFS and KS1 curriculum, we teach children to make safe and sensible choices online. E-Safety is taught as an explicit subject as part of Computer Literacy, but is also inherent within general practice and when opportunities arise. In Key Stage 1 children are taught about algorithms and simple programming. We use ICT to improve the quality of teaching and learning, to stimulate and motivate learners and to encourage independent and personalised learning for all.
