Computing

Our computing curriculum is built around the 3 core strands: computer science, information technology and digital literacy. It provides pupils with a broad experience of computational skills and knowledge they will need to succeed in the digitally driven world of tomorrow.

Throughout our units, there are opportunities for pupils’ computational thinking skills to be developed – the core problem solving skills that make effective computer scientists. Pupils use a range of application types, returning to these in subsequent years to reinforce learning.

The Purple Mash Computing Scheme of Work gives you everything you need to teach computing to primary school children, all in one place. Our scheme goes beyond the national curriculum, continually being updated and reflecting the everchanging technological landscape including units on physical computing, industry-standard software and AI.
