Computing

 

Pupils are taught how to use calculators, computers, CDI ‘Pip’, cameras, PC, Tablet, Ipad and have safe access to the Internet. Computing is used to support all the areas of the curriculum.  The school has laptops for each phase with Ipads and networked stations in the I Lounge section of our school libary.  We have a central server system and SMART boards in every teaching base.  Children are encouraged through ICT to communicate ideas and information in a variety of ways; to capture, store, gain access to, change and interpret information; and to assess the content and presentation of information from various sources.  They will also carry out mathematical investigations, make use of ICT equipment to draw, design, make or compose; measure and control movement and environment variables; and consider and discuss the social and ethical implications of ICT.
