At our school, we want every child to feel confident and capable in a world shaped by technology. To support this, we follow guidance and resources from the National Centre for Computing Education (NCCE) — a nationally recognised organisation funded by the Department for Education to improve the quality of computing education across the country.
Computing
Working with the NCCE helps us to:
-
Deliver a high‑quality, up‑to‑date computing curriculum that reflects current thinking in computer science, digital literacy, and online safety.
-
Ensure teachers have access to expert training and research‑informed resources, enabling them to teach computing with confidence and clarity.
-
Provide children with strong foundations in coding, problem‑solving, logical thinking, and safe use of technology.
-
Offer a clear, consistent progression of skills from Early Years to Year 6, preparing pupils for secondary school and the digital world beyond.
We know parents and carers play an important role in supporting children’s digital learning. The NCCE provides a range of helpful resources that families can explore at home:
