"Through the teaching of Computing we facilitate children's participation in a world of rapidly-changing technology, where they are able to explore, analyse, exchange and present information safely. As a result, children will have the necessary skills to use information in a non-discriminating and effective manner to become confident, creative and independent learners."

Our Digital Leaders 2023 - 24

We took part in Safer Internet Day on February 7th 2023.

Katherine Howard came into school from Smoothwall and worked with every class. she talked about keeping safe when online gaming and how to use the chat function appropriately. How to stay safe when using technology and whether we can trust everything we see online.

Katherine also held a well attended Parent Workshop after school to help our parents keep their children safe at home.

 

Extra -Curricular Opportunities

Some of our children in Year 5 are currently taking part in our lunchtime Minecraft Club.  This is a chance to build virtual worlds in a safe and structured environment with friends.
