Computing
At Rusthall St Paul’s Primary School we aim for our pupils to develop the necessary skills and understanding to be effective users of a range of technology who can participate effectively and safely in the world around them. Children will be able to use a wide range of technology in purposeful ways at school and home to gain the core computing curriculum knowledge and to support the delivery and presentation of all curriculum areas. Pupils will develop the knowledge, skills and understanding in the three main areas of computing
Computer Science:
Information Technology:
Digital Literacy:
Computing skills are a major factor in enabling children to be confident, creative and independent learners and it is our intention that the children will have the opportunity to achieve this.
