COMPUTING

The Cambridge Primary Computing (0059) curriculum helps learners understand how computers work. This stimulating course gives students the opportunity to look inside a computer to understand the purpose of different components. They will develop coding skills on visual programming languages, such as Scratch, and learn that computers can only perform actions that humans ask them to do.

 The Computing curriculum is divided into five strands:

  • Computational Thinking supports learners to create and present solutions to problems using algorithms, logic and precision.

  • Programming helps learners to understand the common constructs of programming languages and to appreciate the contribution that Computer Scientists make to our lives.

  • Managing Data encourages learners to reflect on how computers store and analyse data on an ever-increasing scale.

  • Networks and Digital Communication shows how computers and other machines communicate with each other across networks and how the networks are created through a combination of hardware and data transmission protocols.

  • Computer Systems helps learners to understand that computers follow precise sets of instruction to process inputs that are given by humans, to make decisions and produce outputs.
