At Cannon Lane Primary School, computing provides pupils with the opportunity to learn, understand and apply the fundamental skills of computer science, coding and data representation in a safe and fun way. We provide pupils the opportunity to explore a variety of engaging topics and follow the Rising Stars Programme. Pupils are taught to analyse problems using computational terminology and algorithms.
All pupils are encouraged to have equal opportunities for practical experiences to write and debug code, blog and make films through a range of programmes and apps including: J2E Coding, Kodu, 2Coding, Scratch, Kahoot, Minecraft, Lego, Movie Maker and Espresso. Pupils also have access to Windows 10 PCs, laptops and I-Pads.
All pupils are carefully supported to be confident yet safe and responsible users of technology and the Internet, through regular online safety lessons, workshops and assemblies. Newsletters are regularly sent home to keep parents and carers up to date about online safety, social media and games including: Roblox, Minecraft and Fortnite.
