Here you will find evidence of lots of exciting computing projects that we have been working on at St Paul's. We enjoy using iPads, computers and laptops to support our learning but we are also keen cryptographers and game developers. We use coding to help us to create algorithms for games and work towards designing our own apps. In our computing lessons we use Purple Mash and follow their scheme of work. See the units we will be learning below. We also enjoy using flipcams, cameras and dictaphones to record our learning in a variety of ways.
What is the intent of computing at St Paul's?
At St Paul’s School, we believe that every child should have the right to a curriculum that champions excellence; supporting pupils in achieving to the very best of their abilities. We understand the immense value technology plays not only in supporting the Computing and whole school curriculum but overall in the day-to-day life of our school.
We believe that technology can provide: enhanced collaborative learning opportunities; better engagement of pupils; easier access to rich content; support conceptual understanding of new concepts and can support the needs of all our pupils.
As a school, we have chosen the Purple Mash Computing Scheme of Work from Reception to Year 6. The scheme of work supports our teachers in delivering fun and engaging lessons which help to raise standards and allow all pupils to achieve to
their full potential.
How do we implement computing at St Paul's?
In order to develop their computing knowledge and skills, learners will:
