Subject Intent

 

Through our Computing curriculum at Lanesfield Primary School we aim to give our pupils the life-skills that will enable them to embrace and utilise new technology in a socially responsible and safe way.

​

We want to equip our pupils with the skills to be able to operate in the 21st century workplace and we want them to know the career opportunities that will be open to them if they study computing.

​

We want our children to become confident, creative and independent users of computing technologies, gaining confidence and enjoyment from their learning experiences. We want the use of technology to support learning across the entire curriculum and to ensure that our curriculum is accessible to every child.

​

Not only do we want them to be digitally literate and competent end-users of technology but also through our computer science lessons, we want them to develop creativity, resilience, problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

It is our mission that all our pupils have a breadth of experience to develop their understanding of themselves as individuals within their community but also as members of a wider global community and as responsible digital citizens.
