Computing
Computing at Haveley Hey Primary School intends to develop ‘digital citizens’ through a modern, ambitious and relevant education in computing. We want to
equip pupils to use computational thinking and creativity that will enable them to become active participants in the digital world. It is important to us that
the children understand how to use the ever-changing technology to express themselves, as tools for learning and as a means to drive their generation forward
into the future.
Whilst ensuring they understand the advantages and disadvantages associated with online experiences, we want children to develop as respectful, responsible
and confident users of technology, aware of measures that can be taken to keep themselves and others safe online.
Our aim is to provide a computing curriculum that is designed to balance acquiring a broad and deep knowledge alongside opportunities to apply skills in
various digital contexts. Beyond teaching computing discreetly, we will give pupils the opportunity to apply and develop what they have learnt across wider
learning in the curriculum. Within Haveley Hey we have a specialist teacher of Computing to deliver computing effectively in KS2 and supports KS1 teachers to do the same
