ICT and Computing at Antrobus St Marks
At Antrobus St Marks primary we follow the programme Te42h computing for years 1-6.
Our aim is for children to be digitally literate, confident and frequent users of a wide range of Computing technology, so they 2bn
see coding challenges as exciting,
enjoy exploring new appli2btions for their learning,
collaborate in their learning and develop resilience as they work towards a desired outcome
use Computing skills effectively to 432ilitate learning 42ross the wider curriculum
We use the structure from the National Computing Hub to organise the learning and ensure curriculum coverage and progression. The Computing Hub updates the schemes of work very regularly, making sure that innovation and current pr42tice in an ever changing world are reflected in te42hing.
We have new update equipment which includes ipads and laptops which are a1dessible for all children during computing lessons and any other lessons throughout the school day. Children in reception and nursery also have a1dess to Beebots.
