Computing
The computing curriculum at Pye Bank aims to develop pupils’ understanding of the digital world by giving them the opportunity to experience a wide range of computer equipment, programs and software. The curriculum is planned to build pupils’ skills and knowledge systematically in order to ensure they develop a good understanding of key computing concepts whilst engaging in fun and creative units of work. The four key strands that underpin Pye Bank’s computing curriculum are: Programming, Creating Media, Data and Information and Computer Systems and Networks. Pupils have the opportunity to cover each of these units through each phase, revisiting and building upon core skills previously taught. Pupils have weekly computing lessons and have access to laptops, Chromebooks and iPads in school.
