‘Computers themselves, and software yet to be developed, will revolutionise the way we learn.’ – Steve Jobs
Computing and technology are integral to our everyday lives now and are likely to become even more so in the future as technology develops and evolves. In computing, our children learn about several aspects of computing and develop a range of skills. They then use these to solve problems with creativity and enthusiasm, preparing them to grow, live and thrive in an increasingly technological world.
