At Edward Pauling Primary School, we aim for our children to become digitally literate, computational thinkers and creators preparing them for the modern world.

We aim to: 

*Enable our children to understand and apply the fundamental principles and concepts of computer science, including abstraction, logic, algorithms and data

*Provide opportunities for children to analyse problems in computational terms, and have repeated practical experience of writing computer programs in order to solve such problems

*Ensure our children are responsible, competent, confident and creative users of information and communication technology

*Ensure our children are not only equipped with the knowledge and understanding of computer and digital systems, but can also access technology safely

*Ensure that all our children have a sound and secure computing knowledge that enables them to understand how computer and digital systems work and are programmed and how information can be stored, retrieved and shared with others
