Computing

Saltergate Schools provide pupils with the opportunity to access computing knowledge and equipment at every stage of their schooling. eSafety is at the heart of our provision through key values ensuring that children act responsibly and with caution when using equipment and communicating/accessing applications online.  This is imbedded our weekly Safe@Saltergate sessions, regular assemblies, PHSE and Computing curriculums. Computing sessions occur regularly in class and also where possible opportunities to progress or use and apply computing skills are given throughout the curriculum encompassing creating written documents, presentations and spreadsheets.  Each classroom has a supply of Chromebooks which offer our students instantaneous access to their personal workspace.

Our computing curriculum is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of computer science, digital literacy, and information technology.  Please find below a very broad overview of the computing curriculum provided at Saltergate Schools.
