The Computing Curriculum Year 3 - Benjamin Adlard Primary ...
At Benjamin Adlard Primary School , we recognise that children are living within an increasingly technological world and aim to develop confidence and
                   knowledge in this area. Computing skills are taught specifically during computing session. Skills are practised in sessions and then applied across the
                 curriculum to enhance other subjects. Alongside computing skills we regularly revisit internet safety and the importance of why we need to keep ourselves
                  safe of the internet. As children leave our academy, we aim for children to transfer this knowledge and have the confidence to implement these skills in
Intent

                                                                                     everyday situations.

                 Each class has access to tablets, laptops and SMART boards and teaching is delivered using this technology. In the EYFS, there is continuous provision
                             planned for children to use technology on a regular basis to enhance their skills independently and as part of an adult led group.
Implementation

                      In Key Stage 1 and 2 the children will learn to understand what algorithms are; how they are implemented as programs on digital devices; and that
                 programs execute by following precise and unambiguous instructions. They will be taught to create and debug simple programs and use logical reasoning
                  to predict the behaviour of simple programs. They will be shown how to use a range of technology purposefully to create, organise, store, manipulate and
                 retrieve digital content as well as recognise common uses of information technology beyond school. This will also be taught key computing skills that They
                    will be taught to use technology safely and respectfully, keeping personal information private; identify where to go for help and support when they have
                          concerns about content or contact on the internet or other online technologies. Each of these skills will be taught through exciting termly units.

                  After the implementation of a structured curriculum, children at Benjamin Adlard will be digitally literate and able to join the rest of the world on its digital
                   platform. They will be equipped, not only with the skills and knowledge to use technology effectively and for their own benefit, but more importantly –
Impact

                 safely. The biggest impact we want on our children is that they understand the consequences of using the internet and that they are also aware of how to
                                                                                keep themselves safe online.
                 As children become more confident in their abilities in Computing, they will become more independent and key life skills such as problem-solving, logical
                 thinking and self-evaluation become second nature.
