Hi, my name is Miss Wilson and I am subject lead for Computing.
Computing is an integral part of the National Curriculum and is a key skill for everyday life. A high-quality computing education equips pupils to use creativity to understand and change the world. Computers, iPads, programmable robots, digital and video cameras are just some of the tools that can be used to acquire, organise, store, manipulate, interpret, communicate and present information. We use the Purple Mash scheme of work to teach Computing across school, from Reception to Year 6. Our Computing curriculum is designed to equip children with the skills and understanding to live in a technological world. We want to ensure that our children are confidence, independent and enjoy using technology.
Our Aims
Computing at Valley Road Academy is taught every half term to ensure that children are able to develop depth in their knowledge and skills. We have invested in good quality resources and equipment to support the delivery of Computing.
Our Computing curriculum is delivered across school using the Purple Mash scheme of work.
