Computing
Through the study of computing including internet safety, our pupils will develop an understanding of digital literacy, information technology and computer sciences. Children will become confident and competent with programming; will know how to use technology safely, including all mobile devices, and will be able to report unsafe activity or content appropriately including through CEOP.
