Computing Curriculum

Technology can become the wings that will allow the educational world to fly farther and faster than ever before- if we will allow it.  Jenny Arledge

Computing is taught in three annual modules in years Reception - 6 by class teachers. 

At Magna Carta we use a combination of laptops, iPads and programmable BeeBots to deliver our Computing Curriculum. We have recently started to use microbits in school. 

E-Safety is taught explicitly from EYFS to year 6. It is taught through class lessons as well as through whole school assemblies, PHSE Lessons and awareness events such as National E-Safety Day. 

We also have a team of Computing Ambassadors called Digital Leaders who lead on all matters computing and also support in classes at times by sharing their expertise. Digital Leaders have presented to the school during Anti-Bullying Week as well as E-Safety Week. 

Please open the file below to see our Computing curriculum.
