OUR VISION
Our curriculum has been developed to support students to be competent and independent coders, who are equipped with robust digital literacy and online security skills. Through activity-based learning, we will teach the core programming principles of sequence, selection and iteration, whilst fostering computational thinking skills to solve real-world problems. We aim for students to become discerning researchers, creators, and refiners of digital artefacts, while understanding the intricacies of data representation, and network and system performance, based on hardware and software specifications. We ultimately, aim to prepare our students to thoughtfully engage with the ethical, legal, cultural, and environmental impacts of technology, to become responsible and innovative digital citizens.
