Shibden Head Primary Academy

Computing 

At Shibden Head we use the programme Purple Mash for our Computing lessons. All children from Year 1 - Year 6 have a Computing lesson weekly and half termly children are assessed using the Purple Mash assessing system- please see below our documents for Computing at Shibden Head.

Children are specifically taught which area of the Computing curriculum is their focus from the 3 strands: Computer Science, Information Technology or Digital Literacy. These strands are labelled on the i-pads and our Memory Boards for children to use as a 'trigger' to remember what strand they are focusing on. 

 In school we have specifically purchased software that monitors and filters online use in school, this software has been installed on ALL electronic devices in school that can access the internet. All children are allocated I-pads specifically for them and these are monitored, any breaches of our online filter get reported straight away to the Headteacher/Deputy Head, who is our safeguarding lead.

Please see our Online Safety section for further information about our curriculum and ways in which you can help and support your child to use technology safely.
