Computing at Victoria

Every class from Nursery to Year 6 follow the EYFS/National Curriculum and the schemes of work published by Entrust. We also like to add to the schemes of work, tailoring learning for our children, to ignite excitement and a thirst for knowledge. We love Espresso Coding, Education City, Discovery Education Espresso and a whole wealth of other websites and Apps to support our teaching.

By Year 6 children will be using Scratch to develop coding and sequencing of instructions. Here is the link to the Scratch website which will allow them to independently develop their coding skills.
