At Patrington CE Primary Academy we teach a computing curriculum through the use of Kapow, which both supports and challenges the learning of all of our pupils within the strands of:
Children are encouraged to become independent learners whereby they solve problems by applying their knowledge and developing their natural curiosity further.
Our computing aim at Patrington CE Primary Academy is to ensure that all of our children leave with the knowledge and ability to be successful, discerning and safe in an ever-growing technologically driven world.
In our school, computing is an essential part of the curriculum, it is not only taught as a stand alone lesson, but also intertwined across all subjects.
We teach a curriculum which aims to ensure that all pupils can:
By the end of KS2, children will know how different technology is used in our lives; they will have developed knowledge of Digital Literacy; they will understand the basic principles of programming and coding and they will know how to stay safe using the internet.
Our Computing curriculum will equip children not only with the skills and knowledge to learn and grow in the digital world we live in, but more importantly in a safe and secure manner. They will be able to apply the British Values of democracy, tolerance, mutual respect, rule of law and liberty when using digital systems.
