“Our vision is to ensure that the teaching of Computing is progressive, allowing children to enjoy and explore the subject whilst developing the skills, knowledge and vocabulary to succeed!”
Our teachers aim to equip the children with necessary skills to understand and access technology in an ever-changing and technologically advancing world. In addition to this, we want to ensure that the children are engaged in the learning of new ICT skills, and we will achieve this through expert planning of lessons, which the children can relate to, and by giving them a wide range of opportunities to explore various ICT software and hardware within a given context.
At Adelaide, we endeavour to ensure that children are taught how to use technology safely though continued teaching of e-safety within the school’s Computing scheme of work, and also as part of the wider curriculum, such as PSHE and special assemblies.
What pupils think about our computing curriculum –
“We have learned how to stay safe online. This is very important to stop online bullying and fraud.”
“I feel confident that I know how to keep myself safe online.”
“Coding is fun! We have learned how to make things move and it is like creating my own game!”
