Intent

Computing at Stowmarket High School intends to develop ‘resilient thinkers of the future’. We want to equip pupils to use computational thinking and creativity that will enable them to become active participants in the digital world.

It is important to us that the children understand how to use the ever-changing technology to express themselves, whilst ensuring they understand the advantages and disadvantages associated with online experiences.

We want children to develop as respectful, responsible, and confident users of technology, aware of measures that can be taken to keep themselves and others safe online.

Our aim is to provide a computing curriculum that is designed to balance acquiring a broad and deep knowledge alongside opportunities to apply skills in various digital contexts.

We will give pupils the opportunity to apply and develop what they have learnt in computing across their wider curriculum.
