As ICT underpins today’s modern lifestyle it is essential that all pupils gain the confidence and ability, that they need in this subject, to prepare them for the challenge of a rapidly developing and changing technological world. The use of ICT will enhance and extend children’s learning across the whole curriculum whilst developing motivation and social skills. In order for our school to meet these needs we aim to :
Allow staff and children to gain confidence in and enjoyment from, the use of ICT. Additionally to allow staff to develop professionally by enhancing their teaching skills, management skills and administrative skills.
Allow children to achieve specific ICT skills as set down in the schools scheme of work;
Integrate ICT as a tool in all subject areas.
Allow children to appreciate the relevance of ICT in our society and that they see it as an essential tool for learning, communication, finding information and for controlling and understanding their environment.
Children have a heightened interest and awareness of ICT through the regular display of their ICT enhanced work in the classrooms and around the school, and the positive attitude of staff towards ICT.
Teachers and children will use ICT to work with peers who are separated by distance or time.
