Join our Introduction to Computing Course for New Computing Leads 24-25 (Webinar) – 7 and 14 March 2025
This course is not designed to teach you how to program or use IT but how to help you make informed decisions on which pedagogy to use and when to use it. We dig into progression and assessment in detail. We also look at the best ways to support pupils and teachers who find computing difficult. It will help you build a curriculum as well as teach it and support it. We will look at knowledge development, retrieval practice, careful sequencing of learning and staff training.

Learn How to Use AI as a Primary Teacher: A Safe and Successful Practical Guide (Webinar) 24-25 – 14 February 2025

- Curriculum design
- Presenting ideas
- Testing
- Marking
This course is not a computing course; although we will use technology, it is about helping primary educators enhance learning in all subjects through the careful use of AI while understanding the limitations and drawbacks of the technology at this stage of its development.
