Computing prepares children to participate in a rapidly changing world.
Children are encouraged to develop and use their ICT skills in all areas of the curriculum in order to enhance and develop classroom activities. Pupils in Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 use the My Maths and Purple Mash websites to support their learning across the curriculum.
Each classroom has at least 2 PCs in it and we have 30 iPads in the school that each class uses on several occasions throughout the week.
eSafety is very important to use at St. James, and each class participates in at least 1 eSafety session each half-term. We have also recently celebrated Safer Internet Day 2018.
There is a detailed Development Plan for ICT and resources are constantly reviewed and updated.
All planned computing lessons have learning objectives taken from the National Curriculum (2014).
