Computing

At Thurston CE Primary Academy we intend that children should master Computing to such an extent that they can go on to have careers within Computing and make use of Computing effectively in their everyday lives, without being completely reliant on technology.

Our children will be taught to use technology responsibly and carefully, being mindful of how their behaviour, words and actions can affect others.

Our children will be taught Computing in a way that ensures progression of skills, and follows a sequence to build on previous learning, in line with Rosenshine’s principles.

Our children will gain experience and skills with a wide range of technology in a way that will enhance their learning opportunities, enabling them to use technology in a range of situations to be creative and solve problems, ensuring they make progress.
