Computing Rationale.

For more information on why we teach the Computing curriculum the way we do, please click on the year group below:

Children in Years 1 to 6, are assessed by their specialist instructor for each unit of work as a part of the Junior Jam Computing program and class teachers are sent the assessment data.

The subject leader observes teaching of computing by Junior Jam and moderates class assessment data on a half termly basis and ensures the class data is available to class teachers. This helps to create a ‘plan of action’ and make targets for the future.

As pupils prepare to leave St Michael with St Johns CE Primary School, they will have been prepared with the skills to continually advance themselves in the technological and IT based society we live in. Pupils will draw on their Computing knowledge in real life situations, increasing their confidence, further equipping them to achieve in their future.
