Computing for all year groups has commenced for 2019-20. Children start with basic concepts in Yr3 working to advanced techniques in Yr 6. The syllabus covers basic and more advanced sequencing using Lego Wedo sequencing software and modelling blocks. 3D CAD, coding using HopScotch on the Ipad and Spreadsheet problem solving are all covered dependent on the year group. Here is a capture of some of the work completed so far.
