From ICT to Computing (and all the changes in between!)

With the changes we’ve seen to the Computing curriculum over the years it’s little wonder many teachers are telling us they’re finding it challenging!

Why is it so important that we teach Computing at primary level and what benefits can this bring to students?

What exactly is computational thinking and how can you practically develop these skills in the classroom?

If you’re asking these questions, this webinar is for you.

We’ll be joined by two Computing experts - Paul Clowrey and Sabiha Munshi - both previous teachers and co-authors of our new Inspire Computing course. They will talk us through what’s expected at each level of the Computing curricula and offer some practical strategies for implementing successful Computing lessons in your school.
