At St John’s Meads, we believe every child deserves a curriculum that empowers them to grow into independent, confident learners reflecting our values of love, honesty, generosity, and teamwork [LIGHT].  

Our Computing curriculum nurtures each child’s God-given potential, equipping them with the creativity, skills, and critical thinking to thrive in a digital world. 

Aligned with the National Curriculum and linked to Maths, Science, and Design Technology, our Computing education fosters computational thinking and creativity for navigating an evolving technological landscape. 

Lessons build on prior knowledge with scaffolded teaching and clear modelling of vocabulary and skills. Real-world contexts—like coding everyday devices or online safety—make learning relevant and meaningful, sparking curiosity and encouraging collaboration. Pupils engage in hands-on activities using quality hardware and software, enabling independent exploration and mastery. 

Assessment is ongoing, with timely feedback to support progress and challenge pupils appropriately. By embedding Computing in authentic contexts and delivering it with care, St John’s Meads cultivates resilient learners ready to use technology wisely and compassionately, shining as lights in their communities.
