The ICT and Computing curriculum is a 7-year journey which follows the school’s aims of Learning, Loving, Living. For example, we prepare students to be resilient in their learning and to work collaboratively and safely whilst living in an ever-changing world of technology. The curriculum is designed to ensure students experience a balance of the technical theory of how computers work, and the practical skills involved with using them. Our schemes of learning use examples of real-world problems which require students to design, produce and evaluate different solutions. The ICT and Computing curriculum is specifically created to suit different styles of learners, encompassing both logical and creative thinkers, and providing a platform for students of a range of abilities to succeed. Our students are encouraged to develop independence and take risks in order to help overcome any future challenges they may face. The Key Stage 4 course in Creative iMedia is part of the continuum of this journey.
