Computing

Our Intent

The overarching intent for Computing in the National Curriculum (2014) is to equip pupils with the skills to:

• can understand and apply the fundamental principles and concepts of computer science, including abstraction, logic, algorithms and data representation
• can analyse problems in computational terms, and have repeated practical experience of writing computer programs in order to solve such problems
• can evaluate and apply information technology, including new or unfamiliar
  technologies, analytically to solve problems
• are responsible, competent, confident and creative users of information and communication technology.

The document below shows where each of the requirements are covered and built on in following years.
