How do we implement Computing?

How do we implement our Computing curriculum?

Computing lessons are taught using the Rising Stars scheme of work as a guide, with six units per academic year for each year group. We are flexible in our approach to teaching Computing in order to meet the needs of our class and may opt to teach weekly Computing sessions or teach a unit within a longer grouped block. The knowledge/skills statements build year on year to deepen and challenge our learners. Where appropriate, meaningful links will be made between the Computing curriculum and the wider curriculum.
