As St Luke’s pupils make the transition to secondary school. We want them to be able to become digitally literate across a range of operating systems and be able to use their computational thinking across a range of situations so that they are prepared for a future that we cannot yet imagine.

We want them to be able to navigate the online world safely and securely.

Why we use the Teach Computing Curriculum

• Resources include lesson plans, slides, activity sheets, homework, and assessments are designed by subject experts but easy for us to adapt to meet the needs of your learners
• Built around an innovative progression framework where computing content has been organised into interconnected networks called learning graphs
• Curriculum is designed and sequenced using the latest pedagogical research and teacher feedback
