Computing

At Alexandra Park Primary School, we provide our children with a high-quality computing education that equips pupils to use computational thinking and creativity to understand and change the world. Teaching of computing will include computer science, in which pupils are taught the principles of information and computation, how digital systems work, and how to put this knowledge to use through programming. Building on this knowledge and understanding, pupils will be equipped to use information technology to create programs, systems and a range of content. Computing also ensures that pupils become digitally literate – able to use, and express themselves and develop their ideas through information and communication technology – at a level suitable for the future workplace and as active participants in a digital world.
