Computing

At FTPS, we teach computing skills as a specific subject and also integrate computing across the curriculum.  We teach the specific computing skills through the use of the iCompute Scheme.  We aim to familiarise children with all aspects of modern technology and to promote their confidence, increasing their capability to use computing in later life. We teach the children how to use word publishing and processing facilities, how to store and retrieve information, how to use databases and spreadsheets and how to use logo and programmable toys e.g. roamers for control. We also place an emphasis on learning how a computer works and the importance of e-safety
