Implementation
The programs of study from the National Curriculum are delivered across both Key Stage 1 and 2. The three core strands of control systems, digital literacy, and information technology are broken down into clear objectives for each year group. Children in Foundation Stage have access to Chromebooks, as well as the use of interactive whiteboards and bee bots. Year 1 and 2 have 1:2 Chromebook access while Year 3-6 have 1:1 access. At Staynor, Year 1 to 6 have weekly computing sessions. The objectives for each year group have been mapped across the LTP with cross-curricular links made to enhance other subjects. E-safety is of paramount importance at Staynor Hall and is embedded in the weekly teaching and assembly cycle. At Staynor Hall, we aim to enhance KS1 and KS2 computer science through manipulatives such as micro bits. Opportunities are given to children across the school through the digital leader programme leading e-safety whole school assemblies, teaching EYFS (programming with bee bots), and supporting staff and children with new technology.
